Bayern Munich may be drawn into another transfer scrap with Arsenal as they vye to win the signature of Ajax defender Jurrien Timber, according to reports.
Thomas Tuchel's side were considered the strongest rivals for Arsenal's No 1 transfer target Declan Rice, with the former Chelsea head coach offering to build his midfield around the West Ham captain and having a number of discussions with the player.
Rice is believed to be heading for the Emirates after the Gunners tabled an improved £90million bid for the midfielder, which could rise to as high as £100m with add-ons.
