In recent days, rumors have been swirling that Bayern Munich is a big fan of Rennes center-back Jeremy Jacquet.
However, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano posted on X that Chelsea has already agreed on personal terms with Jacquet and now has to find a number that suits Rennes to complete a transfer:
🚨💣 Chelsea have agreed personal terms with Jeremy Jacquet, the clear main target at centre back.
Contract ready, player keen and talks ongoing with Rennes asking for club record sale fee around €65m.
CFC
bid currently lower. A mission to France already took place. ✈️🇫🇷
Bayern Munich’s need for a center-back is tough to figure out at this point because of the uncertainty with two key figures — Dayot Upamecano and Kim Min-jae. Upamecano is expected to sign a contract extension, which could potentially propel Kim to explore other options. That, however, is just speculation.
Bayern Munich board member for sport Max Eberl is kicking the tires on quite a few players, so if Jacquet leaves the market, the executive will likely move to the next name on his list.
