Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has suggested Kai Havertz could be a transfer target for Bayern Munich.
Havertz scored 17 Bundesliga goals in a breakthrough campaign for Bayer Leverkusen in 2018-19, helping them qualify for the Champions League.
The 20-year-old is considered one of Germany s brightest talents and has been linked with a move to Bundesliga champions Bayern.
And Rummenigge, chief executive at Bayern, indicated Havertz is on the club s radar.
I do not know if Kai Havertz will play in Munich someday, he told Bild.
I m not a fan of predicting things in advance if there are 12 months in between.
Kai Havertz is a good player, we do not need to talk about that, but he does have a contract until 2022.

Bayern have also been linked with RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner, who is entering the last year of his contract.
My relationship with [Leipzig sporting director] Oliver Mintzlaff is good, Rummenigge added.
I said to him seven or eight weeks ago: If we have a serious interest in Timo Werner, I will come to him.

Leroy Sane is another said to be a Bayern target, but Rummenigge was giving nothing away on the Manchester City winger.
First, the player must decide where he sees his future, he said of Werner s fellow Germany international.
A transfer is always a three-party business.
