The Croatian international has settled in well in Munich on loan from Inter and is hoping to convince Bayern to take advantage of the €20 million release clause in his deal, as per the report.
Perisic is currently sidelined with a ankle injury and has targeted a return in time for Bayern's second-leg game against Chelsea on March 18 in the Champions League round of 16.
Whether Perisic will actually succeed in convincing Bayern to spend €20 million on him is doubtful as the Bavarians may want to spend their transfer budget on other, more expensive targets such as Leroy Sané, Kai Havertz and Dayot Upamecano.
