However, Bayern are also in contact and pushing to ferry the Dane away to Germany this summer.

Sky Deutschland's Florian Plettenberg is reporting: "Bayern have the advantage as the situation is a bit different in Germany compared to England – he can already sign a professional contract at 16 years of age. Bayern would only have to pay €400,000. So he’s really cheap!

"But Bayern aren’t the only club interested; there’s also Dortmund who are going for him. So it’s getting really interesting, but I heard that Bayern have a good chance of signing Obi-Martin."
