Bayern Munich have put clubs around Europe on red alert.

Transfers have been coming in thick and fast ahead of Wednesday night's deadline. But a huge switch could be on the cards when the market opens in the summer.

One of the many deals snapped up this month has been the German champions securing the signature of sought-after midfielder Leon Goretzka.

The 22-year-old was subject to intense speculation with Liverpool heavily linked with his services. Though he ultimately opted to remain in the Bundesliga by joining Bayern at the end of the season.

And his arrival could spell the end of Arturo Vidal's Bayern Munich career.

It's claimed that Bayern Munich are prepared to listen to offers for the Chilean midfielder with Manchester United and Chelsea reportedly keen on signing him, per Bild.

His current contract expires in 2019. So a reasonable price should prize him away from Germany.

Antonio Conte has been a keen admirer following their stint together in Italy with Juventus. He masterminded three Scudetto titles with Vidal an integral part of his midfield. The Chelsea boss has reportedly been attempting to sign him while at Stamford Bridge but to no success.

Meanwhile, United's latest addition, Alexis Sanchez, could engineer a potential move.

Further reports suggest Sanchez wants to lure his compatriot to Old Trafford after leaving Arsenal for United, this month.

Like Chelsea, United have also expressed an interest in the ex-Bayer Leverkusen player.

Vidal, 30, is in his third season at Bayern after signing from Juventus in 2015.

But will this be his third and final campaign with the reigning champions? Watch this space.
