Confirmed: Bayern set to sign Coutinho and Cuisance

Coutinho and Michael Cuisance are set to join Bayern München.
Bayern München have announced the imminent signings of FC Barcelona's Philippe Coutinho and Borussia Mönchengladbach's Michael Cuisance.

Coutinho is on the verge of joining Bayern on a season-long loan deal with an option to buy after the Bavarians have reached a deal in principle with FC Barcelona. Coutinho is expected to arrive in Munich for a medical within the next few days.

"I'd like to thank FC Barcelona. Obviously we still have to finalise a few details, but we’re delighted to be bringing this player to FC Bayern," said Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic.

Meanwhile, Cuisance is set to make the move to Munich on a permanent deal from Mönchengladbach.
