Bayern have set their sights on Jordan Pickford as a potential successor to long-serving keeper Manuel Neuer, who is expected to leave the club in 2027. Alan Nixon reports that the Bavarians are actively collecting information on the Everton shot-stopper.
Manager Vincent Kompany is particularly interested in Pickford's situation and is receiving updates about the England international's performances.
Interestingly, Pickford has seemingly jumped ahead of Bartłomiej Korczak in the club’s list of primary targets for what will undoubtedly be a crucial signing following Neuer’s departure.
For Bayern, Pickford's considerable experience could play a key role in their decision as they search for a successor to their long-time first choice.
Everton remain firm on Pickford's status
However, Everton's stance is clear: they are not looking to part ways with their key goalkeeper. Pickford himself hasn't given any indication that he wishes to leave Goodison Park, meaning that, despite Bayern's interest, any potential transfer remains far from negotiation.
Still, Pickford’s position as a central figure for both Everton and the England national team is secure.
