The Bavarians have finalised their squad and will not make any further additions this summer

Bayern will not be making any more signings in this summer transfer window. With five days to go before the final deadline, the Bavarian club, according to 'Bild', believe their squad to be completed, thus ruling out Frenkie de Jong.

Bayern had been interested in the midfielder, given that Barça are looking for his exit, but the player remains determined to succeed at the Camp Nou.

FC Barcelona will let him continue if he agrees to reduce his salary by 50%, but the Dutchman has not agreed so far.

The German club thought of signing Frenkie on loan, plus a non-binding option to buy at the end of the season, similar to the deal with Coutinho in 2019. However, it seems the Dutchman will not follow in the Brazilian's footsteps this season.

The Premier League is De Jong's best destination if he does not continue, with Chelsea and Manchester United in pole position to buy him. His agents have travelled to Barcelona to try to sort the situation and find the best possible solution for the player.
