Report: Woltemade receives priority over Simons at Bayern, Leão still open to move

It appears the Leipzig attacker would only constitute as 'Plan B' should the Bavarians fail to get Woltemade. Meanwhile, Leão is still on the periphery of discussions.

Within Bayern Munich's supervisory board, there is surprise that Xavi Simons is being linked to the club again.

Sport BILD reports that Max Eberl is a big fan of the Dutchman, while Vincent Kompany sees a potential move in a positive light.

However, Simons is only an alternative - even though they decided not to submit a third bid for now, the bosses still want Nick Woltemade. 

The Bavarians' hierarchy believe that time plays in their favour as the Stuttgart striker is determined to move to Die Rekordmeister.

Meanwhile, Rafael Leão would still be willing to join Bayern this summer, expressing said desire during a recent conversation.

The Portuguese winger recently rejected a big offer from Saudi Arabia as he wants to play at European football's top level.

Former RB Leipzig attacker Christopher Nkunku is also listed as a €40million option should Bayern fail to attract their main targets.
