Bayern Munich hijacked Tottenham’s £25million swoop for Genoa defender Radu Dragusin on Tuesday night.
Spurs are close to agreeing a deal for the centre-back after tabling a formal offer – but the Bundesliga side has now followed suit.
It is now up to Dragusin to decide which club he wants to join.
Tottenham have offered out of favour defender Djed Spence, who returned from a loan spell at Leeds last week, to Genoa as a sweetener in their proposed deal.
Bayern’s bid is believed to be a straight cash offer. The hamstring injury suffered by Ben Davies in the win over Burnley has heightened Spurs desire to sign a new defender.

Tottenham were confident of landing the 21 year old, but Bayern’s offer has placed doubt on the transfer.
Mail Sport revealed on Friday that Spurs would immediately put Spence up for transfer following his return amid attitude issues.
And the former England Under 21 star’s potential move to Italy underlines the club’s decision to move him on this month.
Elsewhere, midfielder Gio Lo Celso is being monitored after suffering with what Ange Postecoglou described as ‘muscle fatigue’ in the win over Burnley.
