Bayern Munich sporting director Christoph Freund has ruled out the German champions making any further signings before the transfer window closes later on Tuesday.

That means Bayern will close the window with three new arrivals: Ismael Saibari from PSV for €50 million, Nathaniel Brown from Eintracht Frankfurt for €50 million, and Bara Spoko Ndiaye from Gambinos Stars for €3.5 million.

In terms of departures, however, there could still be movement within Bayern’s squad.

“We won’t be making any more signings, but there may still be some departures. We’re very happy with our squad and the way we’re set up," Freund told reporters.

In addition to Arijon Ibrahimovic, whose loan move to Augsburg is reportedly being finalised, Sacha Boey could also be on the move.

“Sacha is fit, but we've decided by mutual agreement that he’ll train separately because there are some discussions taking place," revealed Freund. 

Hiroki Ito, meanwhile, is expected to stay despite reports linking him with a late move to Ajax.

“There’s nothing urgent regarding Hiroki Ito. We’re planning on Hiroki staying with us,” said Freund.
