Bayern Munich have had a frustrating transfer window as they failed to land several of their priorities this summer.
The German champions chased after several players but eventually had to settle for Luis Diaz as their only big money transfer.
However, they have sold several fringe players and have also cleared a lot of wage cap by letting go of first team stars like Leroy Sane, Kingsley Coman and Thomas Muller.
Despite all the sales, Bayern Munich's supervisory board are only ready to sign a replacement for Coman on loan and therefore they have identified Nicolas Jackson as the ideal player to play the second fiddle behind Harry Kane.
Apart from the Senegal international, Bayern Munich are also reportedly pushing for another attacking player to address the depth issue in their roster.
According to reports via Sky Sports Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg, Bayern Munich have added Chelsea youngster Tyrique George to their list of attacking options.

The German champions have genuine interest in the 19-year-old forward, but it is unclear whether they are looking for an outright transfer or another loan deal.
With Jackson already closing in a loan move to Bavaria, Chelsea reportedly won't allow another player to join Bayern Munich on similar terms.
Interestingly, Serie A outfit AS Roma are also interested in the Chelsea teenager after missing out on Man United winger Jadon Sancho.
Who is Chelsea teenager Tyrique George?
George had a breakthrough campaign for Chelsea last season where he played 26 games across competitions and was an important part of their Conference League success.

If Bayern Munich want to sign the 19-year-old winger, then they need to push for his signature as Roma are eager to lure him out of Chelsea over a potential transfer fee in the region €20-25m.
The England U19 international rose through the ranks at Cobham and broke into the West London outfit's senior team last season.
George was voted as Chelsea's Academy Player of the Year 2025 and despite that he has been overshadowed by new signings this summer on both flanks.
The Cobham graduate is a traditional winger who is fast, creative, good at 1v1 awareness in the final third and has a lot of potential, something that has impressed Gian Piero Gasperini and Vincent Kompany and hence he is on their radar.
According to Fbref, George is in the 90th and 98th percentiles respectively for progressive carries and touches in the opposition penalty area highlighting his tendency to reach dangerous areas.
George could be a great option for both Bayern Munich or Roma mainly due to his high ceiling and potential and his capability to play on either flank.
