Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in signing former Manchester United goalkeeper, David De Gea, as the Spaniard looks for a new club this summer.

The 32-year-old shot-stopper is on the market as a free agent this summer and has attracted interest from the German side, as Thomas Tuchel is keen to add another goalkeeper to his side.

After a difficult end to his Manchester United career, De Gea was not offered an extended deal at Old Trafford and was replaced by Cameroonian shot-stopper, Andre Onana.

Signing from Atletico Madrid in 2011, De Gea made 545 appearances for the Red Devils, winning the Premier League, FA Cup, EFL Cup, Europa League, and the Community Shield three times along the way.

Since leaving the club, the former Spain number one has been linked with a variety of potential suitors including Saudi Arabia, Sevilla and now a move to Bayern Munich.

The German side are expecting a host of additions in the current window, with Harry Kane being the primary target and supporters will hope for a more successful campaign.

Bayern clinched their 11th consecutive league title on the final day of the Bundesliga season and maintained their throne in Germany.

Borussia Dortmund were one win away from clinching the trophy, however, a 2-2 draw with Mainz 05 on the final day ended any dream of winning the league title once again.

Despite this, Thomas Tuchel will look back on the campaign with disappointment as his side were eliminated from the Champions League and DFB Pokal in emphatic fashion.

The former Borussia Dortmund manager was appointed earlier this year after Julian Nagelsmann’s surprise departure and Tuchel was unable to turn things around.

A move for De Gea could be simple to complete due to his free agent status, however, the Spaniard was on a staggering weekly-wage at the Red Devils – earning a reported £250k.
