Bayern Munich are weighing up a move for Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko, according to Bild.
The Bavarians were linked with Olivier Giroud, Luuk de Jong and Matias Suarez soon after they started the search for a new forward, but they eventually opted to sign Claudio Pizarro on a free transfer from Werder.
However, the German giants are looking to add another quality striker to the squad and Bild claims they have set their sights on Manchester City forward Edin Dzeko.
Bayern already have a world-class striker in Mario Gomez and the Bosnian is not the sort of player who is interested in playing second fiddle to anyone, but the German newspaper reveals that coach Jupp Heynckes plans to play the two forwards together.
The Bosnian is not entirely satisfied with his status at Manchester City, after falling behind Carlos Tevez, Mario Balotelli and Kun Aguero in the pecking order and he could jump at the opportunity to return to Bundesliga.
Dzeko currently earns around €7 million per campaign at Etihad and Bayern are prepared to offer him the same amount in order to lure him to Alianz Arena.
