Bayern Munich and Eintracht Frankfurt lay out their plans for Hoffenheim’s Tom Bischof

Bild reports that Bayern Munich have already held talks with the management of Hoffenheim midfielder Tom Bischof over a potential move in the summer. 

Bischof’s contract in Sinsheim expires in the summer and this has resulted in him attracting interest from the biggest clubs in Germany. Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Eintracht Frankfurt and RB Leipzig have all shown an interest in the 19-year-old. 

At the moment, Bayern are said to be the leaders in the race for Bischof. Before Christmas, they already held talks with his management about a possible move in the summer. The Rekordmeister’s plan would be to bring the Fritz Walter Gold Medal winner to the club in the summer before sending him out on loan. 

However, Frankfurt also have a good chance of signing Bischof. The plan on the banks of the main river would be to offer Bischof a five-year deal and set him up as the successor to Mario Götze in the Frankfurt squad. This means that Frankfurt already offer a better chance of first-team football as well as the potential of Champions League football if they continue on their current trajectory.
