Manzambi caught the eye with a brace in Switzerland’s 4-1 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina. The performance has put him firmly on the radar of top European clubs, with Manchester United among those already linked with a summer move.
Speaking to MagentaTV, Muller said Bayern should act quickly. He described Manzambi as a good player who has been on the club’s list for some time.
