The Munich "Bayern" is approaching the main target, replacing Manuel Neuer with an acquisition.

"Sky Sport" journalist Florian Plettenberg announces that the "Bavarians" have reached an agreement with Monchengladbach's "Borussia" for the acquisition of Yann Sommer.

The 34-year-old Swiss will join the Munich team for 8 million euros.

Y. Sommer himself has often prevented the "Bayern" team from winning, representing "Borussia" in the Bundesliga and DFB Pokal.

The experienced goalkeeper will be a short-term replacement for Manuel Neuer, who broke his leg while skiing on vacation.
