Bayern Munich are on the verge of landing one of the Bundesliga’s breakout stars. Nathaniel Brown, the 22-year-old left-back who turned heads all season at Eintracht Frankfurt, is reportedly close to making the jump to Germany’s most decorated club.
Personal terms between Bayern and Brown are already in place, with a contract running through 2031. The only thing standing between the player and a move to the Allianz Arena is the transfer fee, and even that gap appears to be narrowing.
The numbers game
Bayern’s current offer sits just above €50 million. Frankfurt, unsurprisingly, wants more, holding firm at somewhere between €60 million and €65 million.
Bayern’s head of football Max Eberl and Frankfurt’s sporting director Markus Krösche have been in regular contact throughout negotiations, with both sides describing the talks as positive.
