Harry Kane's new strike partner? Bayern Munich want to bring back former youth star three years after letting him leave for free - with Bournemouth's Dean Huijsen also on Vincent Kompany's summer shortlist
Bayern Munich are reportedly keen on signing Kenan Yildiz and Dean Huijsen this summer, with the former having spent a decade in Bayern's youth setup.
According to a report from Tuttosport, Bayern Munich are determined to sign Juventus starlet Yildiz - who spent 10 years in their youth academy before leaving for Serie A in 2022 - as well as highly-rated Bournemouth centre-back Huijsen, this summer.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
The Bavarians are keen on reuniting with Yildiz three years after the young Turkish international parted ways with the club to join Juventus. As per the report, Yildiz would ideally like to prolong his career in Turin, with the Old Lady also against the idea of selling one of their most talented players. Things could change if the Bianconeri fail to qualify for next season's Champions League, as they may be forced to offset the financial loss from missing out on a spot in Europe's premier club competition by selling some key players.
After drawing against rivals Borussia Dortmund last weekend in the Bundesliga, Die Roten will visit San Siro on Wednesday evening as they look to reverse the 2-1 deficit from the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Inter.
