The 22-year-old is looking to reignite his stop-start career three years after bursting onto the scene at Euro 2016.
Bayern beat a host of European clubs to his signature before the start of the tournament but he has struggled for form in Bavaria.
He spent a season at Swansea, where they were relegated from the Premier League, but returned to make 24 appearances under Kovac last year.
