The German giants hope to follow the transfer tactic of their great rivals Borussia Dortmund in snatching promising, young English talent from under the noses of the big Premier League clubs.

Dortmund nurtured the talent of Jadon Sancho before cashing in on him during the summer with the youngster moving to Manchester United for £76.5 million.

And Jude Bellingham is now enjoying some fine form for Dortmund this season.

It wasn't long ago that Bayern were on the verge of signing Chelsea's Callum Hudson-Odoi and now they hope to grab Cleary ahead of the likes of Newcastle United, Crystal Palace and Southampton.

They have of course themselves signed Jamal Musiala from Chelsea to great success, too, as well as Omar Richards.
