Bayern Munich will reportedly try to beat Inter Milan to the signature of rising Olympique Marseille star Luis Henrique in the summer.
According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the Bavarians have decided to step up their pursuit of the Brazilian winger.
It’s no secret that Luis Henrique sits at the top of Inter Milan’s shortlist for the summer transfer window.
Furthermore, Simone Inzaghi’s charges have already set a meeting with the player’s agents to discuss the deal.
However, the German heavyweights could spoil Inter’s plans.
Bayern Munich Aim to Hijack Inter Milan Interest in Luis Henrique
Vincent Kompany’s men have reportedly opened talks with Marseille for the 23-year-old.
Unlike cast-strapped Inter, Marseille’s €30 million asking price won’t deter the Allianz Arena outfit.
Meanwhile, the Nerazzurri are unwilling to go beyond the €25m threshold to close this deal.
Therefore, Bayern could soon overtake the defending Serie A champions in this intense transfer race.
Everything could boil down to the player’s wish.
While the Bavarians would likely use him in his natural position on the wing, Inzaghi would likely deploy him in a more conservative role.
Indeed, the Inter boss sees Henrique as an alternative for Denzel Dumfries in a wingback position.
