Bayern Munich are currently looking at avenues to expand their fanbase in North America. The signing of Canadian international Alphonso Davies from Vancouver Whitecaps is already proving to be a wonderful decision in Bavaria and the Bundesliga giants have been further encouraged to sign more players from the same continent.

Sergino Dest is the latest player to be on the wishlist of the German powerhouse and media reports suggest that both the player and the club want the move to go through this summer.

The 19-year-old, who plays for the US men's national team, can play as both right-back and left-back which will give added depth to Bayern in these positions.

The Bavarians have scouted the defender since the U-20 World Cup in Poland last summer and the player himself was in Munich a few days ago to watch their DFB Pokal fixture. It is rumoured that Ajax has rejected an opening bid of €20 million but it is expected that an agreement can be reached at around €25 million- an amount which is very much feasible from Bayern's point of view.
