Bayern Munich are interested in signing Josko Gvardiol from Manchester City in the summer transfer window. Gvardiol is described as a highly interesting defender, with Bayern also considering his potential fit at left-back if Alphonso Davies is sold. Manchester City would demand a fee of €70m–€75m, which is considered too expensive for Bayern unless circumstances change. Reports indicate Gvardiol would like to return to the Bundesliga and that people around him are pushing for a move to Bayern. A five-year contract offer remains on the table at Manchester City, and the decision may come down to guaranteed money at the Etihad versus waiting for Bayern.
"There's another defender in Manchester who could be a little hotter by comparison - and that's Joško Gvardiol (24). Lothar Matthäus said he heard that Bayern Munich are considering a move for the Croatian. In England, they've also broached the subject. Bayern are watching Gvardiol; he's a very interesting player for them. However, he's also a very expensive player."
"Manchester City would price him at €70m-75m [£60.5m-64.8m]. But the interesting thing is that I heard Joško Gvardiol himself would like to return to the Bundesliga. Internally, he believes it would be a dream to play in Germany again. There are many people around him pushing the defender to go to Bayern Munich."
"There is a five-year contract on the table for him at Manchester City. So, in the end, I think he'll decide in favour of the guaranteed money he'll get at the Etihad. He can't wait forever for Bayern. Still, there are rumours that Bayern Munich would like to sell Alphonso Davies, and if this occurs, Gvardiol, it's worth noting, can also play at left-back. So, it would be possible to sign the Croatia international."
"Otherwise, €70m-75m is too much for Bayern. But I think it's very interesting that the player himself would like to join Bayern Munich."
