German media: Bayern has no intention of de Ligt, and has approached Christensen last December

On January 22, the Italian media recently had rumors that Bayern Munich was interested in Juventus' Dutch centre-back De Ligt, but according to German media reports, this news is untrue.

German media SPORT1 said that Bayern Munich sporting director Salihamidzic was once a big fan of De Ligt, the Dutchman was very close to joining Bayern Munich in 2019, the two sides had even negotiated on the contract term and other issues, De Ligt himself is also a bayern Munich fan. However, the transfer failed at the last minute and he opted for Juventus. According to the German media, Bayern Munich is now unlikely to participate in de Ligt's transfer battle again, mainly due to economic factors.

Also, according to SPORT1, Bayern Munich executives have met with chelsea centre-back Christensen's management team in December last year, during which Bayern Munich expressed their interest in the Danish player. Christensen also has other options, such as Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona, but it is conceivable to renew his contract with the team and stay at Chelsea, where his annual salary requirement is around 10 million euros.
