Sky Sport Italia is reporting that Bayern are set to challenge Juventus for the signature of Fiorentina full-back Juan Cuadrado.
The Colombian winger has been in scintillating form over the last year or so and his impressive performances did not go unnoticed.
After Juventus expressed their interest to sign the highly rated footballer, Bayern Munich seem to have joined the race as well.
The 25-year-old arrived in Italian Serie A in the summer of 2009 as he joined Udinese from Medellin and he in turn enjoyed two very successful loan spells with Lecce and Fiorentina.
Viola went on to acquire the player on co-ownership basis in June, meaning any interested sides will have to negotiate with both them and Udinese.
Given that Cuadrado has quickly developed into a key player at Artemio Franchi, Fiorentina are unlikely to be keen on selling the full-back, but that doesn’t seem to have put off either Bayern or Juventus.
