The chances of Bayern Munich signing Ivan Perisic on a permanent basis is becoming increasingly likely according to a report in today’s print edition of Gazzetta dello Sport.

The Croatian national team winger is currently out on loan at the reigning German champions from Inter and can turn his stay into a permanent one for a sum of €20 million.

Inter are keen to ensure that the Bavaria based club keep a hold of the former Wolfsburg man and the Milan based newspaper’s report goes on to claim that Inter could well grant Bayern Munich a discount, perhaps as big as €5 million.

There had been contrasting reports in recent weeks regarding Bayern Munich’s intentions for Perisic but a number of reports, including this one, are all of the belief that he is likely to be kept on by the Allianz Arena side.

This season Perisic has made 22 appearances, in which he has scored five goals and provided eight assists.
