The next ten days are set to be frantic across Europe as clubs look to strengthen squads for the new season. Bayern Munich is also expected to be busy in the market after being quiet for the majority of the summer since completing three deals in July.
The latest update from Sky Sports in Germany is reporting that Rekordmeister is looking to complete close to five deals before the deadline day. Three deals are set to be for arrivals, while two will be departures to make space for new signings.
Possible arrivals at Bayern Munich
In the past couple of weeks, it has been widely reported that Rekordmeister is looking to complete deals for Marcel Sabitzer and Amine Adli. Both players have one year left on contracts at their respective clubs.

Rekordmeister has been reportedly in advanced negotiations for Sabitzer, but it does look like the defending Bundesliga Champions are waiting for departures to make space for a new midfielder. The Austrian midfielder has worked with Julian Nagelsmann at RB Leipzig in the last two seasons. His versatility in the center of the park will give Rekordmeister a lot of tactical flexibility.
Meanwhile, Toulouse winger Adli has been identified as the target for the fourth winger. Sky Sports confirm that negotiations are moving ahead to complete this deal. The French winger is eager to complete a move to Bavaria over other clubs. Apart from these two signings, Sky also insists that right-back remains on the list for Die Roten. However, the emergence of Josip Stanisic could help the club to save some money in this window.
Possible departures at Bayern Munich
On the list of departures, there has been one change in name as per Sky Sports. Since Corentin Tolisso is nowhere near a departure, the future of Marc Roca in Bavaria is looking uncertain. The Spanish midfielder is currently recovering from a ligament injury, but talks are taking place in the background for a possible loan or sale to make way for Sabitzer.
Roca has been unfortunate with injury this pre-season as he worked hard during summer to get ready for the new campaign. A loan move would serve better for all parties if Roca is guaranteed to get considerable playing time.
Meanwhile, this report from Sky also confirms that Bouna Sarr has rejected an offer from Italy, but a French club is also in contention to sign the full-back. Apart from these two players, Mickael Cuisance is also likely to be on his way out before the end of the window.
Rekordmeister had a similar frantic end to the transfer window last summer. The German Champions will be hoping that they enjoy a better success rate with numerous deals that are set to be completed in the next ten days.
