Bayern Munich to sign Choupo-Moting as Lewandowski backup following PSG exit

Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting is set to join Bayern Munich on a two-year contract, Goal can confirm.

The 31-year-old Cameroon forward has been without a club since leaving Paris Saint-Germain at the end of last season.

Choupo-Moting will provide cover for Bayern talisman Robert Lewandowski, with German outlet kicker suggesting the 19-year-old Joshua Zirkzee will be sent out on loan to gain more regular first-team action.
