No Bayern contact for Jan Vertonghen

No Bayern contact for Vertonghen

Jan Vertonghen's agent has claimed that Bayern Munich have made no contact with Ajax regarding the defender's availability.

Bayern are believed to be keen on signing a centre-back in the summer and recent reports had linked them with the Belgian international.

Despite admitting that a number of clubs are interested in his client, a spokesman of his agent told Goal.com that no formal offers had been made.

"[Bayern] have not contacted us. It's not the first time that I hear something about this, but I can't do much with it at this point," said the spokesman.

"The English and German press have written stories like this before. Things will only get serious when a club approach Ajax though, and that has not happened yet as far as I know.

"However, I can reveal that there is plenty of interest from abroad."

Vertonghen, 24, is expected to leave Ajax in the summer.
