Bayern Munich have reportedly made their first offer for Ajax midfielder Ryan Gravenberch.
The 19-year-old's current deal with Erik ten Hag's side is due to expire in the summer of 2023, and he recently insisted that he would not leave the Eredivisie giants for free.
As a result, Ajax could come under pressure to garner a fee for Gravenberch this summer, with Bayern, Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid all linked with a bid.
Now, journalist Fabrizio Romano reports that Bayern have held talks with the teenager's agent Mino Raiola over personal terms and have made an opening bid of €25m (£21m).
Romano adds that Ajax are holding out for a higher fee and will seemingly rebuff Bayern's first offer, but discussions will continue in the coming days.
Gravenberch has scored 11 goals and set up 13 more in 98 appearances for Ajax since rising through their youth ranks.
