According to reports, Bayern Munich is planning to make a move for Gittens during this transfer window. The club's sporting director, Max Eberl, has flown back to Germany after attending the Club World Cup and is now eager to find a new winger. Eberl has already held discussions with Gittens' representatives, which suggests that the club is serious about signing the player.

However, Bayern Munich may face competition from Chelsea, who have not given up on signing Gittens. The London-based club has already made four unsuccessful bids, but they intend to try again. Gittens has a contract with Borussia Dortmund until the summer of 2028, which makes him a highly sought-after player in the football world.
