Report: Bayern Munich Ready to Offer €60m for Roma Winger Cengiz Under

Bayern Munich are reportedly preparing a €60 million offer for talented Roma attacker Cengiz Under, with Arsenal and Manchester City also monitoring developments. 

Calciomercato's Francesco Balzani reported the Bundesliga champions are ready to make their move for the Turkey international next summer.

The 21-year-old winger joined the Serie A giants from Turkish outfit Basaksehir in 2017 and has established himself as a starter after scoring seven goals last season in Italy.

The reported offer from Bayern would give Roma a significant profit on the player after they spent €13 million to bring him to the Stadio Olimpico.

Calciomercato added the German club view Under as a potential successor for Arjen Robben, who turns 35 next January. Arsenal and City have previously been reportedly linked with the player's services, but both have been unable to tempt the Giallorossi into talks.

Under burst onto the international scene after making his debut for his country in 2016, but his talent has flourished over the past 12 months.

The player has become a deadly proponent in the channel, timing his runs to perfection to beat the offside trap.

Roma have suffered a poor start to their campaign this season, holding only ninth in Serie A, but Under has continued to deliver exciting form in a faltering squad.

Under has balance that mirrors Lionel Messi when he runs with the ball, and his increasing productivity will ensure the top teams in Europe keep an eye on him.

Statman Dave highlighted the attacker's numbers as he impressed in Roma's 5-0 win over Viktoria Plzen in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday:

Bayern will have a huge void to fill when Robben hangs up his boots or leaves the team, and with Franck Ribery also in the twilight of his career, the Bavarians must recruit youthful replacements.

However, Under would suit the pace and tactics of the Premier League, and he would be the perfect signing for Arsenal manager Unai Emery or City coach Pep Guardiola.

Guardiola utilised Messi well at Barcelona, and he would take Under to the next level if he arrives at the Emirates Stadium.

The player could quickly become a hunted talent in January, forcing Bayern to make their move as soon as possible for his signature.

Under will soon outgrow his environment in the Italian capital city, and his future will lie at one of the bigger clubs in European football.
