What we know

Bayern Munich have listed Kevin Trapp among goalkeeper targets for next summer, per Sky Germany. His contract at Paris FC runs to June 2028.

Reports frame him as a seasoned back-up option rather than a first-choice signing. Four outlets reported on 6 Oct. Sky Germany's list, attributed by Goal and Bulinews, included Trapp alongside other names; Goal added Nick Pope and Bulinews named Koen Casteels and Frederik Rønnow.
