The search for a midfielder who can occupy the space just in front of the defence for German giants Bayern Munich has led to the listing of potential options in that department, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.
Coach of the team Thomas Tuchel is keen on bolstering that part of his squad as they aim for a successful defence of their league crown and also a good campaign in the UEFA Champions League.
The season didn’t start too well for the Bavarians losing the German Super Cup 3-0 to RB Leipzig, a loss that has now led to an urgency in trying to improve the squad with two weeks left in the summer transfer window.
According to the online edition of German publication Kicker, the trio of Ibrahim Sangaré, Wilfred Ndidi and Aurélien Tchouaméni are mentioned as potential candidates in Bayern’s search for a #6. A ‘surprise’ in the position during the last two weeks of the window is a possibility.

Georg Holzner who was credited with the report said contact has been made already for Sangare of Dutch side PSV but there is still no breakthrough on a deal, Ndidi who has a year to run on his deal at Leicester City is seen as the next option if the deal for Sangare fails to materialise.
Ndidi is ahead of Tchouameni in their list with the idea that Real Madrid won’t make it easy to sign the French international, who only joined them last summer.
