Bayern Munich are redirecting their attention to RC Lens defender Kevin Danso following the impending likelihood of missing out on a deal for Genoa’s Radu Dragusin, who seems to be closing in on a move to Tottenham. Florian Plettenberg indicates that Spurs have reached a ‘full agreement’ with Genoa, leaving Bayern yet to submit an official offer for the Romanian.

With the Dragusin pursuit potentially slipping away, Fabrizio Romano reports that Bayern Munich are now considering Kevin Danso as part of their center-back targets. Danso, who previously faced Arsenal in the Champions League this season, has reemerged as a potential option for the Bundesliga giants.

Danso, a key figure for Lens this season, played a significant role in their historic 2-1 victory over Arsenal in October. The 25-year-old, who admitted dreaming of playing for Arsenal in his youth, played the full 90 minutes in both Champions League encounters against the Gunners this season.

Despite expressing his admiration for Arsenal and acknowledging it as a dream to play in the Premier League, Danso is now on Bayern Munich’s radar. With a reported market value of £26 million, Danso’s potential move to Bayern adds an interesting dimension to the transfer saga, especially considering his affinity for Arsenal.

It remains to be seen how this development unfolds, and whether Danso will make a move to another European giant, shifting focus away from his long-standing dream of playing for Arsenal.
