Bayern Munich boss Vincent Kompany has had long-term interest in Nathaniel Brown

The situation surrounding Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt left-back Nathaniel Brown seems to be evolving quickly, but the club’s interest is not exactly a new thing.

In fact, Bild (via @iMiaSanMia ) is reporting that Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany wanted Brown when the manager was at Burnley:

@BILD confirms @Plettigoal’s report that Bayern reached an agreement with Nathaniel Brown over a summer transfer. Vincent Kompany is particularly keen on the German international and is determined to have him in the squad next season. Kompany actually wanted Brown back in Burnley, but the player opted for Frankfurt back then. Bayern consider him as the hottest left-back prospect in all of Europe. However, negotiations with Eintracht Frankfurt are expected to be tough. Markus Krösche is currently holding out for around €65m. The expectation is that he will not significantly lower his demands.

Brown was born in Amberg, Bavaria, and his family still lives there. He was quickly convinced of the move to Munich and sees Bayern as his absolute dream destination.

Working out the financials with Eintracht Frankfurt could, indeed, prove to be tough and there is also the threat that Arsenal attempts a late swoop, as well. That said, Bayern Munich seems determined to secure Brown’s signature.
