Bayern are heavily linked with a move for the Morocco international.

Sevilla are reportedly not planning to accept Bayern Munich’s €8m offer for Yassine Bounou.

The Bavarians are on the verge of sending Alexander Nubel on a loan deal to Stuttgart, while Inter are closing in on a deal for Yann Sommer.

The two players’ departures have convinced Bayern to look for a new goalkeeper. However, it seems their initial offer for Bono is significantly less than Sevilla’s valuation of the 32-year-old.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the La Liga side have put a €20m price tag on Bono ahead of the next season. The Spanish source claims Sevilla have already rejected a €12m offer from Paris Saint-Germain for the keeper.

Earlier reports in German media claimed Bono is keen to join Bayern, accepting his role as a backup keeper behind Manuel Neuer. However, Sevilla’s demands could convince Bayern to look for a new option.

Another La Liga goalkeeper, Giorgi Mamardashvili, has also emerged on Bayern’s radar this summer. The Georgian star has even been mooted as a possible replacement for Neuer. However, according to Relevo, Bayern will need to pay around €25m to complete his transfer.

With the Bavarians pursuing a big-money move for Harry Kane, they might be forced to look for a short-term goalkeeping solution ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.
