- Inter rejected a €32m bid from Crystal Palace for Bisseck last summer, with his valuation set at €40m at that time
- Luka Vuskovic, under contract at Tottenham, will spend the rest of the 2025-26 season on loan with Hamburger SV
Defensive Targets for the Future
Bayern Munich are planning a significant overhaul of their defensive line-up for the 2026-27 season, with Bundesliga outlet Sport1 revealing the club’s interest in two international centre-backs: Inter’s Yann Aurel Bisseck and Tottenham’s Luka Vuskovic.
Yann Aurel Bisseck: Rising Profile at Inter
Bisseck, who has established himself as a regular starter at the Stadio Meazza, has made 21 appearances across all competitions this campaign. The 25-year-old attracted significant interest from the Premier League last summer, including a €32m proposal from Crystal Palace which Inter turned down. According to prior reports, Inter had set their asking price at €40m, and given Bisseck’s continued development, any future transfer fee may well exceed this figure.

Luka Vuskovic: Tottenham Prospect with Bundesliga Experience
Alongside Bisseck, Bayern Munich are also monitoring Luka Vuskovic, an 18-year-old talent contracted to Tottenham. Vuskovic is currently on loan at Hamburger SV until the rest of the 2025-26 season, providing him with valuable Bundesliga experience ahead of a potential move.
Bayern’s Long-Term Planning
The pursuit of Bisseck and Vuskovic signals Bayern’s intent to refresh their defensive options with a view to replacing Kim Min-jae. Reports indicate the club are ready to entertain offers for the ex-Napoli defender next season, underlining their proactive approach to squad management ahead of the 2026-27 campaign.
