Report: Bayern have held 'intensive talks' with Ajax defender Sergino Dest

Bayern München appear to be front-runners to sign Ajax's Sergino Dest.
Bayern München are working on the signing of Sergino Dest from Ajax, according to Sky Germany.

The German media outlet claims that Bayern have recently held 'intensive talks' with the 19-year-old about a potential summer move to Germany.

With Álvaro Odriozola expected to return to Real Madrid when his loan spell is over at the end of the season, Dest could come in to fill the gap at right-back.

Apparently, Dest is subject to interest from Barcelona as well, but Bayern are understood to be leading the race for the 19-year-old, who visited Allianz Arena to see the German champions beat Hoffenheim 4-3 at Allianz Arena in February.

The U.S. international has made 35 appearances for Ajax this season with two goals and six assists to his name.
