It is Real Madrid who have been heavily linked with a Bayern Munich player in recent times. Alphonso Davies' extension talks with the Bundesliga champions are believed to be complicated and that could lead him to join Los Blancos next summer, when he will have just a year left on his deal. The likes of Chelsea and Manchester City have been linked with the left-back as well,
On the other hand, it looks like the German club are not sitting quietly either. They appear to have one of Real Madrid's players in their sights as they look to strengthen Thomas Tuchel's squad.
As reported by SPORT, Bayern Munich are now considering going for Rafa Marin. Ronald Araujo is believed to be their number one target but he for now continues with the clear idea of wanting to succeed as a Barcelona player.
Marin was one of the most highly-rated players at Castilla but has not even made his debut for the senior team yet. Instead, he now finds himself out on loan at Alaves and appears to be making a positive enough experience to earn links with Bayern Munich.
Bayern Munich want to sign Real Madrid centre-back
It is almost unbelievable that the 21-year-old centre-back has not debuted for Real Madrid yet. He seems to be very highly rated. Other than Bayern Munich, he has been linked with Chelsea in the past as well.
It remains to be seen what the future holds for Marin. Will he return to Real Madrid and have a role to play there or will he leave next summer?
One has to feel that Marin would have had a role to play this season, with Davia Alaba and Eder Militao out with long-term injuries. But he joined Alaves on loan and it has been a good experience for him, as he has been involved in the majority of the games.
