Bayern Munich are on the verge of completing the signing of left-back Nathaniel Brown from Eintracht Frankfurt, according to multiple reports. The 21-year-old German youth international has already held talks with Bayern head coach Vincent Kompany, and personal terms have been finalized.
Player side agreed
Sources indicate that Brown has given his approval to the move, with all aspects on the player's side now settled. The defender is understood to be eager to join the Bundesliga champions and work under Kompany.
Club negotiations advanced
On the club-to-club front, negotiations between Bayern and Eintracht Frankfurt are at an advanced stage. German tabloid BILD first reported that the deal is progressing rapidly, with both sides optimistic about reaching a full agreement soon. The transfer fee is expected to be in the region of €20 million, though official figures have not been confirmed.
Brown, who came through the youth ranks at Eintracht Frankfurt, has made 28 appearances for the senior side, scoring two goals and providing four assists. His versatility allows him to play as a left-back or left wing-back, adding depth to Bayern's defensive options.
Bayern have been active in the transfer market this summer, with the signing of Brown seen as a move to bolster their left flank. The club previously lost left-back Alphonso Davies to a long-term injury, and the Canadian's future remains uncertain amid contract talks.
