Bayern Munich looking to steal top Manchester United transfer target

Napoli are resigned to losing their top defender, but where he will land up is unknown as Bayern Munich attempts to overtake Manchester United. Manchester United's efforts to strengthen their defense during the summer transfer window have been thwarted as Bayern Munich enters the fight to capture Napoli defender Kim Min Jae. Manchester United and Bayern Munich will compete for a Korean defender. The Korean defender had been on Manchester United's radar, and the Red Devils were apparently planning to entice him away from Napoli with a substantial summer bid comparable to his release clause value. His potential move to Manchester United had been boosted when French giants Paris Saint-Germain pulled out of a deal to sign him amid reports that the Napoli defender would choose a move to England over a move to France. Swapping Napoli for Manchester United appeared confident as the date for his €60 million release clause to become active drew nearer, but a new club has threatened to complicate any deal for the Korean.
