Bayern Munich are weighing up joining the battle for Chelsea defender Alex.
The Brazil defender is a target for Juventus, where general manager Beppe Marotta is keen to set up a deal worth around £5 million.
Bayern football chief Christian Nerlinger is a big fan of Alex and wants to bring him to Germany for the new season.
Marotta is attempting to close a deal quickly as he knows Juve do not have the spending power to match Bayern in any outright auction.
