With Dayot Upamecano being linked with the likes of Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea, Bayern Munich have held secret talks with him. More details in this week's SL Podcast The Bundesliga Connection.
It can be argued that if German champions Bayern Munich were to strengthen their defence, the side would be unstoppable this season, and it seems as though they are making progress in their efforts to secure the signature of rival side RB Leipzig's star centre-back Dayot Upamecano.
Reports have emerged suggesting that last season's treble winners held secret meetings with the highly-rated young defender ahead of a potential move at the end of the campaign.
In the latest episode of the SL Podcast's "The Bundesliga Connection" show, DW sports correspondent Kres Harrington joins the show to discuss a potential move from Bayern for the in-demand defender's signature, as well as the latest round of Bundesliga fixtures.
In the full podcast, Harrington also discusses Bayern's victory over Hoffenheim, Borussia Dortmund ending their winless streak, and other news from Germany's first division.
