Bayern out on De Cat (Sport Bild’s Christian Falk)
Despite all of the rumors stating otherwise, Sport Bild journalist Christian Falk says that Bayern Munich will not pursue RSC Anderlecht midfielder Nathan De Cat:
❌ It is NOT TRUE: Bayern Munich are planning to sign Nathan De Cat in the summer. So, I have some good news for the Premier League! Bayern Munich won’t go for Nathan De Cat any more. The Premier League can go for him. FC Bayern find the player interesting, that’s very much true. However, there just isn’t a free space in the midfield for any more midfielders
of his playing style.
De Cat was just one of the names being bandied about for Bayern Munich’s midfield, but the latest bit of news seems to indicate that it will be Kennet Eichhorn or no one — as the Bavarians would seem to promote from within.

Guirassy out, Asllani in at BVB? (Sky Germany)
There are rumors swirling that Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy could leave the club this summer. If so, BVB could look to Hoffenheim striker Fisnik Asllani to fill the void:
Guirassy , who was recently declared a potential sale, could leave BVB this summer for around €50 million – but only for certain top European clubs. The striker is under no pressure; Guirassy’s camp is taking its time and currently listening to all options. A decision is not expected until the end of the season.
Should the 30-year-old Guinean actually leave Dortmund, Asllani could potentially become Guirassy’s successor. New sporting director Book wouldn’t be the sole reason, but their shared history at Elversberg would certainly be a major factor.

Chelsea not talking to Pavlo (Sport Bild’s Christian Falk)
There were some stories linking Bayern Munich midfielder Aleksandar Pavlović to Chelsea, but Sport Bild’s Christian Falk says that is not the case:
❌ It is NOT TRUE: Chelsea have made contact with Aleksandar Pavlović. It’s interesting that so many English clubs are keen on Pavlović, but it’s not true that there has been any contact. I can tell you there was some contact in the winter, but not from Chelsea – it was from Manchester City! They knocked on the door and asked if there was an opportunity to bring the German to the Premier League, but there was a clear “no” from the club.
