The deal could be completed in the next few days, with a fee of around €1.5 million on the table.

The 18-year-old, who can play as a winger or in an attacking midfield role, is expected to initially gain match practice with the reserves.

Journalists Tom Bogert and Fabrizio Romano already reported on Bayern's interest in the United States U17 international back in November.

Darboe is yet to make his first senior appearance.
