According to reporter Ben Jacobs, the Bavarian giants have been in touch but have been told that Lopez is not interested in a move and wants to stay at Barcelona.

Bayern are aiming to make attacking signings this summer after losing both Leroy Sane and Thomas Muller, something the club have acknowledged.
“It’s a fact that we’ll have two less attackers. Our clear objective is to strengthen there and bring quality,” Christoph Freund has said recently.
Bayern were keen on Florian Wirtz but he is now expected to join Liverpool instead in a blockbuster 150 million euro transfer.
The Bavarians have also been linked with Nico Williams, although there may be more disappointment there as he is thought to prefer a move to Barcelona.
Fermin does appear to have a few admirers this summer, with Chelsea also keen, but clearly does not want to move away after becoming a really useful member of the squad.
