Ghana international Joseph Aidoo will be considered by German and European champions Bayern Munich.
This is according to Bayern manager Hans-Dieter (Hansi) Flick, who hinted that the Bavarians might consider a move to sign the central defender from Spanish club Celta de Vigo.
Flick was speaking in reaction to recent remarks that were made by the Ghanaian who expressed a dream to follow in the footsteps of compatriot Samuel Osei Kuffour.
“My mentor is Samuel Kuffour. I am proud to have been international as he was and to follow in his footsteps. He is my mentor because, I think I will play for Bayern Munich in the future and he was there,” Joseph Aidoo said.
“That is why I have always carried that club in my heart. Kuffour had a good impact on the world of football.
“Bayern Munich touched my heart since childhood. I follow their games and even go to their website to watch some videos.

Legendary Ghana defender Kuffour is best remembered for his time with the German champions Bayern whom he represented for over a decade, winning a total of 14 honours, and playing in nearly 250 games for the club.
“There are a lot of players who would like to play at FC Bayern,” said Flick.
“If he [Joseph Aidoo] has the appropriate disposition and quality, then I think he will be dealt with.”
Aidoo has become a consistent performer for Celta Vigo in La Liga this season, and is looking better and better.
The 25-year-old joined Celta after leaving Belgian club KRC Genk for a reported fee of around €8 million in July 2019.
He has played seven international matches for the Black Stars so far and will be looking to cement his place in the starting lineup.
