According to Sky Sports, West Ham United talent Benicio Baker-Boaitey is travelling to Germany for talks over an exit.
It’s claimed that Baker-Boaitey is heading to Germany today for negotiations with a host of clubs, including Bayern Munich.
A Bundesliga move seems to be on the horizon for the winger, with a number of clubs queueing up to sign him.
The report notes that Baker-Boaitey has been compared to Juventus winger Douglas Costa, which is unsurprisingly making him a wanted man.
West Ham had hoped that the wide man would sign professional terms upon turning 17, but that now looks unlikely.
Baker-Boiatey will cost less than £200,000 in compensation, and he looks set to follow Jude Bellingham in making the move to Germany.
The news may come as a blow to Liverpool, as Sport1 in Germany reported in May that the Reds were rivalling Bayern for Bakey-Boaitey’s signature.
Liverpool could have given the teenager a stay in England and the chance to join fellow young winger Harvey Elliott at Anfield.
Instead, it looks like Baker-Boaitey will be heading to Germany, with Bayern seemingly the favourites.
