Bayern Munich midfielder Ryan Gravenberch has admitted he is yet to hold talks with Thomas Tuchel over his future at the club.
The 21-year-old joined the German giants from Ajax last summer and, despite winning the Bundesliga during his maiden campaign with the club, was limited to only three league starts.
Utilised as a substitute for the majority of the 2022/23 season, it has proven to be an underwhelming first year from a personal perspective. This has resulted in the youngster being linked with a summer move away from Bayern in search of regular game time, with Liverpool among the clubs to be linked with a move.
Gravenberch is on the Reds' shortlist of targets, the ECHO understands, though a sticking point is likely to be Bayern's reluctance to part ways with the Dutchman. The three-time Eredivisie winner has stressed he is happy to remain at his current employers if provided the opportunity to impress, though is not prepared to experience a repeat of last term.

Discussing his lack of chances under previous Bayern boss Julian Nagelsmann, he told De Telegraaf: "I thought: Seriously, what is this? I had expected that I would get more chances and minutes than I eventually got. I had done a very good preparation and thought I deserved it."
On what he expects to happen this summer, Gravenberch added: "There may be plans with me. I haven't really spoken to the trainer about that yet, that will come after the European Championship when I'm back from Georgia and Romania. Then we'll see how things are.
"I just want to play more, preferably at Bayern Munich. And otherwise at a club where I play 100 percent. That's my preference. Because I don't want to have another year like the one I've had now. One like that. One season is good, I really learned a lot. But I just want to play football."
