Fans have been crying from the rooftops for months now for Bayern Munich to sign Hertha Berlin wonderkid Kennet Eichhorn.

In Plettenbergâs report, as captured by @iMiaSanMia, Bayern Munich have done everything to sign Eichhorn. There have already been two meetings with the player and Kompany is determined to sign him. While the interest here is not surprising, it is great to see how seriously they are taking his talent:

Kompany reportedly already sees Eichhorn as one of four core midfielders in the squad alongside Joshua Kimmich, Alexander PavloviÄ, and Tom Bischof. Quite elite company for the Hertha talent to star alongside but Kompany promised game time from the get go, which would be incredibly exciting to see.
Now, the wait is on as Bayern must get approval from the player. While there are many clubs interested and certainly offering plans, Manchester City are viewed as the most serious competitor. It would surely be one of the most crucial signings for Bayern this decade and fans might already be salivating with the imagination of PavloviÄ, Bischof, and Eichhorn in the midfield for many years to come. A midfield that could not only be the face of Bayern, but even Germany for the next decade.
The price is certainly right, and the talent is there, so the only issue now is getting the signature over the line. Fingers crossed Bayern fans!
