David Alaba has left Munich for Madrid, now, according to the Bild newspaper, another Austrian could come.
Marcel Sabitzer has not only been a coveted transfer target for many top clubs since his strong performance at the European Football Championship. In the past few weeks, the 27-year-old has been linked to AC Milan and Tottenham Hotspur. “Should you write what you want,” said the ÖFB star in the course of the European Championship about the rumors of change.
But now there should also be interest within the German Bundesliga. As the Bild newspaper reported on Tuesday, Bayern Munich should tinker with an obligation of the current Leipzig player. Thus, after the departure of David Alaba, who said goodbye to Real Madrid after 12 years, the next ÖFB star could dock with the German record champions.
Return to Nagelsmann?
Sabitzer's contract with the Leipzigers expires in 2022, an extension is probably not possible. His current club could at least earn a transfer. According to the picture , a transfer sum of “18 million euros plus X” is under discussion. A bargain for Bayern, Sabitzer's market value is currently significantly higher. And the 27-year-old would work with ex-trainer Julian Nagelsmann again.
Leipzig did not want to comment on a possible change of the Austrian. “We have no request,” says Florian Scholz, the commercial director of sports.
