<p>Despite unproductive talks, Leao is still interested in a move to Bayern, according to German outlet<a href="https://sportbild.bild.de/fussball/fc-bayern-muenchen/transfer-war-schon-vom-tisch-rafael-leao-weiter-heiss-auf-bayern-687f427de3080c1c1f3830d2" target="_blank"> <em>Bild</em>.</a> The German club held direct talks with the winger’s representatives in June but made no official offer to Milan, deeming the asking price too high.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Bayern are aiming to bolster their attack this summer following <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/leroy-sane-reflects-five-intense-years-bayern-munich-farewell-message-galatasaray-signing-mobbed-fans-airport-landing-istanbul/blt60c5b26862638e03" target="_blank">Leroy Sane’s</a> move to Galatasaray and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/thomas-muller-is-mls-bound-bayern-munich-icon-will-sign-contract-and-complete-long-awaited-move-to-united-states/blta866e361e1bb2834" target="_blank">Thomas Muller’s</a> free transfer departure.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Honorary president Uli Hoeness dismissed the Leao transfer rumours, stating earlier this month: “No, no, he was never an option for us! Max [Eberl, sporting director] told me that too. He had talks about it, but they weren’t productive.”</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Leao and Milan are set to take on Arsenal in a friendly pre-season as it will be Massimiliano Allegri’s first game in charge since joining the club. Bayern meanwhile will look elsewhere to bolster their attack after failing to land their targets including Leao.</p>
