Bayern Munich are reportedly at the head of the queue for Lille attacker Nicolas Pepe, who has also been strongly linked with Arsenal.

Bayern Munich are reportedly at the head of the queue for Lille attacker Nicolas Pepe.

The 23-year-old has been in impressive form for Lille this season, finding the back of the net on 16 occasions in 27 Ligue 1 appearances.

Arsenal have been strongly linked with a move for the Ivory Coast international, who is reportedly valued at £68.8m by the French side.

However, according to Le10 Sport, Bayern are the frontrunners for Pepe's signature, with the reigning German champions confident of finalising a deal ahead of the opening of this summer's transfer window.

The attacker joined Lille from Angers in 2017 and has scored 31 times in 68 appearances for his current club in all competitions.
