All that's left is for the two clubs to agree to a transfer fee, according to Bild.
Bayern are understood to currently be offering around £20million for Gravenberch, but Ajax are holding out for £30m.
The player is set to be sold this summer to ensure the Dutch champions don't lose him for free when his contract expires in the summer of 2023.
And Bayern are inching ever closer towards wrapping up a deal after Gravenberch rejected Ajax's proposals for an extension.
The news is a blow to Manchester United, who are on the lookout for a central midfielder with Paul Pogba's contract expiring in the summer.
While Ajax boss Erik ten Hag is inching closer to being appointed as the next Red Devils manager, he is unlikely to bring Gravenberch with him.
The starlet is claimed to have snubbed a move to Old Trafford in favour of signing for Bayern.
Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano reports Gravenberch's agent, Mino Raiola, met with Bayern chiefs in Monaco today to discuss a deal.
And while the final details are yet to be finalised, Gravenberch is "really close" to joining Bayern Munich this summer.
Also on the agenda was Gravenberch's Ajax team-mate, Noussair Mazraoui, another client of Raiola.
He too is claimed to be on the verge of signing for Bayern this summer upon the expiry of his contract with the Eredivisie champions.
The 24-year-old right-back had been linked with Barcelona, but is said to prefer a move to Bayern.
