Bayer Munich are set to launch a bid for West Ham captain Declan Rice.
The England midfielder is expected to leave West Ham this summer and was understood to be favouring a move to Arsenal.
But Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel has spoken directly to Rice and a bid is imminent from the Germans.
Sky Sports' Florian Plettenberg is reporting the pair held a productive phone call over the weekend, with both sharing a mutual appreciation.
Tuchel had wanted to sign Rice for Chelsea.
Bayern are willing to offer £95m for Rice in a structured proposal as they seek to trump Arsenal.
