Agent admits Bayern Munich contact for Genoa keeper Perin

Genoa goalkeeper Mattia Perin is attracting interest from Bayern Munich.

His agent admits there has been talks with the German giants.

"Bayern Munich is an old thing now," Matteo Roggi told Calcio News.

"We were in contact about a month ago. They were looking for a goalkeeper, but Mattia is after continuity.

"As fascinating as it would have been to go to Bayern, there was no negotiation really in place.

"I don't think playing second fiddle to Manuel Neuer would be right for his career at such a young age."
