Bayern Munich are interested in two Chelsea players ahead of the summer transfer window, according to reports.
After Julien Nagelsmann’s departure, Bayern appointed Thomas Tuchel as a new manager. The German signed a two-and-a-half-year contract but official confirmation is yet to be given. There is a possibility of Chelsea and Bayern coming head to head this season in the Champions League and Tuchel will be excited to face his former club.
However, now Bayern are ready to make a double swoop of the London-based club. As per reports, Bayern are ready to sign both Mateo Kovacic and Eduardo Mendy in the summer transfer window. Both players might exit from Stanford Bridge at the end of the season.
Mendy is an ardent admirer of Tuchel following their time together in Chelsea. Following his sacking, Mendy spoke about his relationship with the German. He said:-
“I will always remember Thomas Tuchel very positively.
“The time with the Blues was super awesome with him. Tuchel has always given the maximum for his players and strived for the maximum. He could identify 1000 percent with his task.
“He was always straight forward, honest and loyal to his players. I really enjoyed my time with him. He came with his own ideas, his own game philosophy and it immediately suited our squad. Just four months after succeeding Frank Lampard, Chelsea have won the Champions League. That was sensational.”
However, Tuchel will want both of his Former superstars back in Bayern.
