Vincent Kompany 'targets Liverpool defender' as part of Bayern Munich's summer rebuild... with Chelsea star 'also attracting interest' as German giants look to bolster their back line

Vincent Kompany has identified a Liverpool defender as one of his key targets at Bayern Munich this summer, according to reports.

The ex-Manchester City captain's shock appointment as Bayern Munich's new manager was announced at the end of last month, with Kompany joining the Bundesliga giants just after suffering Premier League relegation with Burnley.

Bayern, who were drawn to Kompany because of his impressive coaching philosophy, are set to undergo a major summer overhaul ahead of next season after failing to lift a single trophy last term, with Bayer Leverkusen winning an undefeated Bundesliga crown under Xabi Alonso.
