Bayern Munich have already started planning for the summer window, and they could be in a transfer battle with Manchester United to sign one of Egypt’s rising stars.
Despite winning the Bundesliga, Bayern are disappointed by their European campaign, and they must address that during the summer transfer window.
The German giants have been heavily linked with a move for Florian Wirtz, but they are also checking on some other young talents.
Bayern Munich submit offer for rising Egyptian star
According to a report from Africa Soccer, Bayern and Man Utd are showing interest in signing the young Egyptian forward Hamza Abdelkarim.
The 17-year-old striker plays for Al Ahly and impressed during the North African Under-17 Championship.
He has put in some standout displays for Egypt’s youth side, and his performances have not gone unnoticed, with both Bayern and the Red Devils keeping a close eye on him.
The report claims that Bayern submitted an official offer three days ago, and talks are ongoing at the moment over the fee and resale clause.
United shared their interest in the youngster verbally, but Bayern made the approach through official channels.
The German giants have made a firm bid, and they are not looking to take him on trial.
Last month, media personality Kareem Ramzy praised the teenager and hailed him as an “exceptional” talent.
Ramzy said, as quoted by YsScores: “Hamza AbdelKarim is considered a distinguished striker and a player with great abilities and exceptional skills that make him at least the third striker in the team behind Wissam Abu Ali and Gradychar.”
The news has been covered in the Egyptian media as well.

Bayern Munich looking to add young strikers
At the moment, we are not getting carried away and will wait for credible journalists to verify the news.
We are not entirely sure about the reliability of the story, but it appears that there has been some connection.
Harry Kane has enjoyed a phenomenal campaign and has been rightly adjudged as the player of the season.
However, it makes sense for Bayern to look for another back-up striker for Kane, with Patrik Schick being touted as a potential option.
Even if Bayern sign Abdelkarim, he will possibly join the academy ranks. He looks like a cracking talent, and Bayern probably see him as a player for the future.
