Christopher Nkunku is reportedly open to a move to Bayern Munich before the transfer window closes, with sources indicating that a deal remains possible up until deadline day.

The outcome now appears to hinge on whether Bayern re-enter the race for Nick Woltemade. The versatile Chelsea forward has previously given the green light to a move to Munich, having reached a verbal agreement in January.

Nkunku's ability to play as a No.9, No.10 or on the wing makes him a highly sought-after target, and Bayern are understood to be seriously weighing their options.

Meanwhile, RB Leipzig are reportedly open to a loan arrangement, while Chelsea and Nkunku himself are pushing for a permanent transfer. The player's flexibility and creativity in attack are widely regarded as a perfect fit for Bayern's tactical setup under Vincent Kompany.

As the deadline approaches, negotiations are expected to intensify, with multiple suitors circling.
