Bayern Munich new signing gets approval for FIFA Club World Cup | OneFootball

Bayern Munich have one hand on the league title with three games left to play. One more win, and the trophy is guaranteed to be in the possession of Die Roten. After the conclusion of the Bundesliga on May 17, the players will go into the preparation process for the FIFA Club World Cup, which starts in mid-June.

Vincent Kompany is looking to finalize the roster to bring to the USA. Apart from the current squad, Bayern Munich will also showcase some young talents from the academy. Jonah Kusi-Asare, Wisdom Mike, and Lennart Karl are all expected to have minutes in the tournament.

Bayern fans are also looking forward to the highly anticipated debut of another young star in the summer transfer, Tom Bischof from TSG Hoffenheim. The young German's contract only expires on June 30, which makes him unavailable for the first phase of the Club World Cup. However, Bayern Munich are in negotiations with Hoffenheim to release Bischof ahead of schedule.

The talks have been going well. While talking to Sky Sports (via iMiaSanMia), Hoffenheim director Andreas Schicker has shown great willingness to let Tom Bischof join Bayern early.

Tom Bischof has enjoyed a breakout campaign this year. He tallied six goals and three assists across all competitions. Bayern have managed to scoop up Germany's top midfield talent for a price of $0 (€0 for our European readers). The deal has been confirmed in the January transfer window. The 19-year-old will join Bayern's exciting haul of young talents and is expected to be the club's midfield maestro in the near future. And, hopefully, his legacy in red and white will all start at the FIFA Club World Cup in the coming months.

Bayern looking to bring in more depth ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup

According to TyC Sports, Bayern Munich are having links with Independiente's midfielder Filipe Loyola. The Chilean international is also a very versatile player, capable of playing both as a center midfielder and as a right-back - a similar archetype as Konrad Laimer. The 24-year-old also fancies this move to the German giant.

The expected fee for this deal might fall around €15-20 million. Bayern are considered to be serious about the move and are in the advanced phase.
