"According to German football journalist Christopher Michel, Bayern pushed hard to sign Kennet Eichhorn from Hertha. It remains to be seen why the move didn't materialise, but he remains a long-term target for Bayern. The race to sign Eichhorn is wide open as Eintracht Frankfurt are also interested in signing him. The youngster reportedly has a release clause in his current deal at Hertha."
"Eichhorn has been making waves in the second division by playing at a great level for Hertha's senior team. The 16-year-old is considered the next big midfield talent in Germany. Considering how difficult it is to excel in the center of the park, Eichhorn has taken to senior football like a duck to water. He has made 11 appearances for the first team at Hertha."
Bayern Munich must replace Leon Goretzka after his confirmed departure and have sought midfield reinforcements. The club pushed to sign Kennet Eichhorn from Hertha, but the move did not materialise; Eintracht Frankfurt also show interest. Eichhorn reportedly has a release clause and may require a complete €25 million package including salary. The 16-year-old has made 11 first-team appearances for Hertha and excels as a deep-lying or box-to-box midfielder with close control and ball-carrying ability. Bayern already have Aleksandar Pavlovic, Tom Bischof and experienced Joshua Kimmich, whose contract runs until 2029.
