Report: Bayern to move for Alderweireld

Bayern Munich are reportedly weighing up an offer for Tottenham Hotspur centre-back Toby Alderweireld as they seek a replacement for Jerome Boateng.

The Bundesliga champions are open to offloading the Germany international if his £50m valuation is met as they fear that he has become unsettled after seven years at the club.

According to The Sun, Bayern already have a list of options to take over from Boateng in the heart of defence, with Alderweireld among those being considered.

Alderweireld has refused a new contact in North London and was tipped to join Manchester United in the summer, but Spurs did not receive a formal offer.

Bayern could hold out until next summer, however, as the 29-year-old has a £25m release clause which can be activated at the end of the season.
