Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg continues to share optimistic news regarding Declan Rice’s potential move from West Ham United to Bayern Munich.
The reporter’s latest updates are regarding the meeting that officials from the Bundesliga side had with him in London.
It’s said the encounter ‘was positive’, with Rice giving ‘the feeling’ he can ‘imagine’ leaving West Ham for Bayern this summer.
According to Plettenberg, bosses from the German club ‘discussed’ the signing in the past few days, and now want to prepare an official offer.
It’s manager Thomas Tuchel who’s said to be the ‘main driver’ for this transfer.
The same journalist had already claimed that the coach spoke to Rice about the transfer, and it really seems like things are moving forward.
Bayern Munich’s biggest concern seems to be Arsenal’s interest in the West Ham player. That’s not mentioned by Plettenberg, but on Friday morning, Bild detailed that situation.
In a not so optimistic story, they claimed there’s ‘still hope’ at the Bundesliga side that they can beat the Gunners to this signing. Those are two different takes, and we shall see who’s closer to the truth.
