Hello and Welcome to the daily Bayern Munich Transfer corner.
Bayern has been in the news in recent times with speculation surrounding few of their top players. Hence without much delay, let's look at what's today's edition of transfer round up has in store for us.
#4 James Rodriguez's father speaks about his son's future amid transfer rumors
James Rodriguez moved to Bayern Munich on a two-year loan deal from Real Madrid to get more game time under his belt.
However, after a steady first season, things have deteriorated for the Columbian who has been warned by his manager about his attitude stating that he is fighting for his future at the club.
The unstable situation of James raised alarm bells across Europe with Arsenal among the few clubs wanting to sign him on loan for the rest of the season.
Moreover, Rodriguez's father confirmed interest from England for the 27-year-old who is into his last six months of the loan period at Bayern. He said -
"I don't have news about it, but there may be offers based on those rumors coming from England.
"He is calm and he feels that he's at a good level again and that he's physically strong.
"That gives us a perspective that he is happy, motivated and working well, as he is eager to achieve new success."
Bayern paid about £11.5m to loan Rodriguez and have an option to make it permanent for £39.5m in the summer, but the deal seems unlikely given his current state at the club.
#3 Chris Richards signs a permanent contract with Bayern
The 18-year-old, Chris Richards from FC Dallas has signed a permanent four-and-a-half-year deal with Bayern Munich. His move got confirmed after he impressed during his loan spell with the Under-19 side.
Chris has expressed his happiness after signing for one of the world's best clubs with his campus manager, Jochen Sauer saying -
"We are very happy that we have agreed Chris' transfer from Dallas.
"Chris has represented us very well in the last six months and we are convinced that he will continue to develop well here at Bayern. We see great potential in him."
His signing was also a significant development in the partnership between FC Bayern and Dallas to create pathways of professional soccer in the US and Europe for young players.
#2 Bayern and Liverpool would have to pay £87m for Timo Werner
Bundesliga expert, Raphael Honigstein believes that both Liverpool and Bayern Munich would have to shell out £87m if they want to sign RB Leipzig forward, Timo Werner next summer.
The German International is one of Bundesliga brightest young talents who has been in excellent goalscoring form this season as well.
Timo could also play as a left winger which makes him an ideal replacement for the departing Frank Ribery at Bayern.
However, Jurgen Klopp is believed to be an admirer of Werner who would add more firepower to an already strong Liverpool attack.
Both the clubs would square off in a mouthwatering Champions League cash and might find themselves in a transfer battle in the summer.

Amidst all the speculation, Bayern manager, Niko Kovac has confirmed that he is not willing to sell Renato and believes he is doing well at the club. According to him -
PSG was very interested and still is, But I say clearly that Renato will not leave because I think he is progressing very well.I do not want to do without it. I know that PSG have some problems in the middle of the field but that's not our problem. "
