Report: Bayern Munich to monitor Jordan Pickford at World Cup

Bayern Munich will reportedly continue to monitor England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford at this summer's World Cup.

The 24-year-old has enjoyed a solid season in between the sticks for Everton and is likely to be given the number one jersey for his nation in Russia.

Bayern, meanwhile, are believed to be assessing their options in goal, with Manuel Neuer missing the majority of the season through injury and deputy Sven Ulreich committing a calamitous blunder in the Champions League semi-finals against Real Madrid.

According to The Sun, the Bundesliga champions have been making checks on Pickford throughout the Premier League campaign and will continue to watch him on the big stage with a view to a prospective future bid.

Pickford arrived at Goodison Park from Sunderland last season for £30m and is under contract until June 2022.
