Rafael Leão, Nico Williams, Bradley Barcola and Eberechi Eze are among Bayern Munich's potential targets after missing out on the signing of Bayer Leverkusen starlet Florian Wirtz, sources told ESPN.
Wirtz, who is currently on holiday following the UEFA Nations League finals, is set to soon complete his transfer to Liverpool, after ESPN reported last week that the Premier League champions had agreed a deal that could rise to €136 million.
The German champions had their sights set on the playmaker but suffered a setback when Wirtz told the club that he'd rather join Liverpool.
Director of sport Max Eberl and sporting director Christoph Freund, who are currently with the team at the FIFA Club World Cup, have a variety of alternative names on their list.
The German champions know that they need to add at least one difference-maker to the squad and that signing a respected Bundesliga winger such as Freiburg's Ritsu Doan, who has attracted Bayern's interest as a backup option for the attack, wouldn't be enough, sources added.
Thomas Müller and Leroy Sané will leave the club following the Club World Cup. Bayern offered Sané a contract extension with a base salary of €12 million but were rejected by the German international who instead decided to join Turkish champions Galatasaray.
