Wednesday's visit to the Allianz Arena will be a special one for Hoffenheim prodigy Tom Bischof, as he will be facing his likely future employers, Bayern München.

According to Kicker, Bischof is leaning towards a move to the Bavarians and a final decision could be made after Wednesday's game.

The report claims that the plan is for Bischof to take Leon Goretzka's place in the Bayern squad, with the 29-year-old expected to leave the Allianz Arena a year before his contract expires in the summer.

Bischof's contract with Hoffenheim expires at the end of the season, so it shouldn't be too long before his future is settled, with Eintracht Frankfurt and RB Leipzig also interested.

Hoffenheim have made it clear that they want him to stay, but the struggling Bundesliga outfit's chances of keeping hold of the highly-rated youngster seem to be diminishing by the day.
