Tom Bischoff has rejected interest from the Premier League and signed a four-year contract with Bayern Munich.
The midfielder will join Bayern in the summer on a free transfer when his contract with Hoffenheim expires.
Bischof, 19, was born in Bavaria but came through the ranks at Hoffenheim before making his debut in 2022, aged just 16.
He has made 53 first-team appearances and is reportedly on the radar of Arsenal and Aston Villa.
Bayern’s sporting director Christoph Freud told the club’s official website: “Tom Bischoff is one of the biggest German talents who has also attracted international interest.
“At only 19 years of age, he has already gained a lot of experience in professional football, in the Bundesliga as well as in the DFB-Pokal and the Europa League. Tom fits our philosophy perfectly as a technically gifted midfielder. We are happy that he has decided to take his next steps at FC Bayern. Tom has all the attributes to establish himself at the highest level.”
