Bayern Munich are pushing to sign Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi before Monday's deadline.
The Daily Mail says Bayern have stepped up their latest attempts to prise Hudson-Odoi away from Chelsea.
Bayern have approached Chelsea to see if they can conclude a deal to sign the England winger before Monday's deadline.
Hudson-Odoi, 19, signed a new five-year contract last September after Chelsea rebuffed Bayern's attempts to sign him in the previous two windows.
But they have been alerted and encouraged again by his recent lack of action.
All options are currently being considered by the German giants, who are open to taking Hudson-Odoi either on an initial loan or permanently.
