Désiré Doué latest: Bayern Munich to up bid for €60m Rennes wonderkid, Paris Saint-Germain circling
The Bavarians are targeting an injection of youth this summer.
Bayern Munich looks set for a makeover in attack this summer as it continues to target youth. The German giants are reportedly gunning hard for Rennes attacking midfielder Désiré Doué — but the 19-year-old will not be easy to get, with Paris Saint-Germain also in the picture.
Per Le Parisien journalist Benjamin Quarez, Bayern’s initial €35M bid was turned down by the Ligue 1 club. As noted by transfers journalist Fabrizio Romano, the Bavarians are also in the hunt for PSG’s 21-year-old Xavi Simons, who spent the last season on loan at RB Leipzig.
But according to L’Équipe, Rennes want €60M for Doué. And per Sky Sports, it will be down to Bayern and PSG — if he leaves at all. Via @iMiaSanMia:
Désiré Doué is set to decide between Bayern Munich or Paris Saint-Germain – if he leaves Rennes this summer. The 19-year-old has interest from a host of top clubs, including from the Premier League. However, it is Bayern and PSG who are the two clubs he is deciding between [@SkySportsLyall]
Additionally, multiple reports indicate Bayern will return for Doué with an improved bid — and even indicate that Simons is only a backup plan. Via @iMiaSanMia:
Both @Santi_J_FM and @FabriceHawkins /@RMCsport are reporting that Bayern will return with another bid for Désiré Doué who is seen as a priority, while Xavi Simons is a plan B in case the Désiré transfer didn’t go through
PSG’s interest is expected to be strong, but Bayern has apparently moved first. From RMC Sport journalist Fabrice Hawkins:
Paris Saint-Germain will take action for Desiré Doué
The player is highly appreciated by the leaders of PSG but also by Luis EnriqueBayern is one step ahead and is negotiating with Rennes.➡️ 1st offer 30M € + 5 bonus rejected by Rennes
2nd offer ⏳
While Sky Sport journalist Florian Plettenberg offers reason for optimism for Bayern fans:
Désiré #Doué can really imagine to join FC Bayern already this summer!
Concrete talks with Bayern took place. He’s on the list for weeks as revealed. Bayern would like to secure the 19 y/o top talent from Stade Rennes already this summer. Because the plan for Doué is a transfer this window. PSG, also there.
First offer of €35m is said to have been made as per @leparisien_psg. But: no confirmation for a official written offer yet. But clubs are in contact about a possible transfer.

Can Bayern close this deal quickly — and how much will the club have to splash out on this transfer?
