Daily Schmankerl: Bayern Munich's Vincent Kompany makes personal pitch to Desire Doue; Real Madrid to ink another Bayern star; Oliver Kahn knows why Bayern Munich is shopping Matthijs de Ligt; Serge Gnabry won't leave Bayern yet; and MORE!

Vincent Kompany's personal mission is to assist Bayern Munich in signing Desire Doue, targeted ahead of Premier League clubs. Kompany's involvement arose as Bayern paid Burnley to release him as the new head coach.

Bayern Munich, led by Kompany, are in advanced negotiations for the signing of Rennes prodigy Doue. Paris Saint-Germain competes for the 19-year-old versatile winger/forward, but Bayern currently leads the race.

Oliver Kahn suggests injuries may be driving Bayern Munich's decision to potentially sell Matthijs de Ligt, whom Kahn admires for his leadership potential. Despite setbacks, De Ligt's performance has not reached its anticipated heights.
