The Dutchman is not the profile of a defensive midfielder Bayern are looking for. In addition, he wants to stay in Barcelona.The odds on Bayern Munich landing <a href="https://bracethehammer.sbnation.com/">West Ham</a> defensive midfielder Declan Rice are long and it remains to be seen exactly what happens if Rice opts to stay in England. Who would Bayern Munich go for — if anyone — at that point? (Maybe this <a href="https://www.bavarianfootballworks.com/2023/6/9/23754372/bayern-munich-fiorentina-sofyan-amrabat-declan-rice-west-ham-transfer-rumor-united-barcelona-chelsea">guy</a>.)De Jong is a player who has been long-rumored to be on Bayern Munich’s wish list (very similar the situation with Matthijs de Ligt last season), but it appears that the Dutchman is not yet ready to leave Catalonia. Is it improbable for him to make the move to Bayern Munich this summer? Sure.Would I completely scratch him off the list at this point? Not just yet. Bayern Munich is desperate and could get super-aggressive if it feels like it needs to as the summer <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/transfer-rumors">transfer window</a> goes on. <a href="https://thehardtackle.com/transfer-news/2023/06/06/real-madrid-ready-to-offer-part-exchange-deal-to-sign-alphonso-davies/">Madrid pitching swap deal for Davies? (The Hard Tackle)</a><a href="https://www.managingmadrid.com">Real Madrid</a> might be proposing a swap deal to Bayern Munich in hopes of convincing the Bavarians to send Alphonso Davies to Spain. Who is the player that would be headed back to Bayern Munich in such a deal? Ferland Mendy.Seriously:Real Madrid are ready to offer Ferland Mendy in a player-plus-cash deal to sign Bayern Munich full-back Alphonso Davies. According to Defensa Central, Real Madrid are desperate to acquire the services of Alphonso Davies ahead of next season. The 22-year-old full-back has been on the radar of Los Blancos for quite a while now, and they are all set to make a move in the summer.Florentino Perez and Jose Angel Sanchez have suggested to Carlo Ancelotti the possibility of signing the Bayern Munich full-back. The trio had a meeting regarding the need to sign a new left-back. And it seems they are keen on acquiring Davies.Ferland Mendy has been a great servant for Los Blancos over the past few seasons, and he was integral to their triumph in last year’s <a href="https://www.sbnation.com/champions-league">Champions League</a>. But, the 27-year-old has struggled with injuries. And in his absence Real Madrid have been forced to play Eduardo Camavinga in the left-back slot.<a href="https://twitter.com/Plettigoal/status/1666113327292985344?s=20">Bayern not interested in N’Dicka (@Plettigoal)</a>Despite some reports that were floating around, Bayern Munich is not interested in Eintracht Frankfurt defender Evan Ndicka: Update <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Ndicka?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Ndicka</a>: FC Bayern won’t enter the race confirmed.
