Julian Alvarez and Adrien Rabiot have both emerged as reported targets for Bayern Munich ahead of the summer transfer window.
Bayern have endured a difficult season, exiting the Champions League at the quarter-final stage, and Saturday's defeat to RB Leipzig has gifted Borussia Dortmund the opportunity to snatch the Bundesliga title off them this weekend.
A defeat at home to Freiburg in the DFB-Pokal early in Thomas Tuchel's reign also means Bayern may end the season without a single major honour for the first time since 2011-12.
Therefore, summer activity is expected at the Allianz Arena, and BILD claims that Alvarez and Rabiot are two players who could arrive to fill gaps in the squad identified by Tuchel.
A high-profile striker coming in is one target for the club, after not signing a direct replacement for Robert Lewandowski last summer, as well as a central midfielder, possibly due to Joshua Kimmich being linked with a move away from Bavaria.
Alvarez has impressed in his debut season at Manchester City, but has made just 22 starts at the Etihad as he plays second fiddle to Erling Braut Haaland.
Rabiot has enjoyed a fruitful season at Juventus despite the Old Lady's struggles on and off the pitch this season, scoring 11 goals from midfield, but he is out of contract this summer and is expected to depart.
However, despite the interest shown in the two players, the report also claims that they are not the priorities for Bayern.
Harry Kane and Randal Kolo Muani are said to be the preferred striking options Bayern are looking at, while they also rank Mateo Kovacic and Declan Rice above Rabiot in terms of ideal midfield signings. body check tags ::
