Bayern Munich Willing To Include Toni In Gourcuff Deal With Milan
The Rossoneri could be willing to concede the Frenchman to Bayern in exchange for the ex-Fiorentina goalscorer...
Bayern Munich are set to make a number of changes during the off-season after an inconsistent campaign. The Bundesliga outfit were humiliated by Barcelona in the Champions League and also are in danger of losing out to Wolfsburg in league play.
With big clubs willing to pay massive amounts for Franck Ribery, the Bavarians are likely to collect and reinforce the squad and one player they have their eye on is Bordeaux star Yoann Gourcuff. The young Frenchman has impressed in Ligue 1, on loan from AC Milan, and is would be an ideal addition to the midfield.
According to Il Giorno and Tuttosport, Bayern are willing to include striker Luca Toni, who has been close to joining the Rossoneri in the past, to sweeten the deal
The Italian international has been unable to replicate the prolific exploits he showed in his first season at the Allianz Arena and Milan could use the hitman up front.
One possible obstacle is Bordeaux, who have the option to sign Gourcuff permanently at the end of the season if they can come up with the €13 million necessary to seal the deal.
