German Bundesliga side, Bayern Munich will not be signing formal player Jerome Boateng.
The decision has been taken today, Friday, October 6.
Jerome Boateng, 35, had been linked with a return to Bayern Munich as a free agent in the last few days.
This was after the German international of Ghanaian descent was spotted training at the club to stay fit in hopes of getting a new club.
Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel speaking on a potential deal said, "He behaved well and trained. We have tested it and we will clarify this with everyone involved this afternoon and then announce it. Contrary to reports to the contrary, no decision has been made yet. We're just sorting that out internally now."
Today, Bayern Munich have told Jerome Boateng that he will not be signed.
The veteran defender remains a free agent and will hope to land a deal in the January transfer window.
