Canada international Jonathan David is expected to leave Lille on a free transfer next summer.
David has developed into one of the deadliest finishers in Ligue 1 following his 2020 transfer move from Gent.
97 goals in 202 appearances is an eye-catching tally in front of goal but he is rumoured to be looking for a new challenge for the 2025/26 season.
Lille’s offer of a contract renewal has been rejected with reports from Sky Sports indicating Bayern Munich are now the current front runners to sign the 24-year-old striker on a pre-contract agreement.
Bayern Munich CEO Max Eberl is reportedly determined to secure a deal, with Atletico Madrid struggling to match their offer, as talks step up in Bavaria.
Real Madrid have expressed an inconsistent interest in David, but with their forward positions covered, a move to Munich offers a greater first team chance unless Los Rojiblancos can devise a fresh challenge to the Bundesliga giants.
