The report suggests Bayern view De Ketelaere as a player capable of adding creativity and flexibility to Vincent Kompany’s squad, with the Belgian able to operate as an attacking midfielder, winger, or support striker.
Personal terms are not expected to present a major obstacle, as De Ketelaere is believed to be open to the idea of joining the German giants if negotiations progress further in the coming weeks.
Despite Bayern’s growing interest, no official talks have yet taken place between the Bundesliga side and Atalanta
De Ketelaere remains under contract with the Serie A club until 2028, putting Atalanta in a strong negotiating position should Bayern decide to formalise their interest during the summer window.
The Belgian international has contributed five goals and seven assists in 39 appearances across all competitions this season, continuing to establish himself as one of Atalanta’s key attacking players
