Bayern 'desperate to sign Ter Stegen from Barcelona'

Bayern Munich are reportedly determined to sign Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen.

The 27-year-old has been Barca's number one stopper in each of the last four seasons, but there is currently widespread speculation surrounding the Germany international's future.

Ter Stegen has a contract at Camp Nou until the summer of 2022, although the Spanish champions are allegedly keen to tie up an extension until 2025 as soon as possible.

The former Borussia Monchengladbach youngster is said to be aware of interest from Bayern, though, and could turn down a new contract in Spain in order to return to the Bundesliga.

According to Marca, Bayern are desperate to sign Ter Stegen as a replacement for Manuel Neuer and could attempt to secure a deal during this summer's transfer window.

The German has kept 11 clean sheets in 34 appearances for Barca during the current season.
