"Discussing Murillo as an option for Bayern, Falk stated that the impressive young defender would likely cost around 50m and also be a target for Chelsea if he moves in the near future. It is TRUE: Bayern Munich have added Murillo to their shortlist. This is because they don't know what's going to happen with their own defensive talent in the near future, Falk said."
"Forest, of course, gave him a new contract in January in part because Real Madrid were looking at him. Bayern can imagine bringing the 23-year-old centre-back into the squad. However, his transfer fee won't be an easy one for FC Bayern. We suspect it'll be over 50m [43.5m] that they would have to pay, but one advantage is that he doesn't have a particularly high salary at the moment, so he would fit well into the Bayern squad."
Nottingham Forest centre-back Murillo has attracted interest from Chelsea and Bayern Munich following impressive Premier League performances. Forest rewarded the 23-year-old with a new contract in January amid reported Real Madrid interest. Bayern have placed Murillo on a shortlist as they face uncertainty over defensive personnel and could imagine signing the defender, but his transfer fee is expected to exceed £50 million. Murillo's current salary is relatively low, making him a financial fit for Bayern despite the fee. Chelsea are also reported to be interested, and clubs are preparing to compete for his signature.
