Sabitzer before departure to top club?
A Bayern Munich professional will find it difficult to make many appearances in the future. Does he leave the club?
Munich – In the middle of the FC Bayern Munich there is a dense crowd. Joshua Kimmich is set by coach Julian Nagelsmann and as a sideman Leon Goretzka was ahead by the end of 2022. At the beginning of the season, Marcel Sabitzer blossomed and surprisingly secured a regular place. The Austrian, who was considered Nagelsmann’s dream player and moved from RB Leipzig to Säbener Straße, had been disappointing at FC Bayern Munich until then, but now he seems to have finally arrived.
FC Bayern Munich: Sabitzer before departure?
But how much longer will Marcel Sabitzer play for Bayern Munich? During the first half of the season, he lost the regular place he had fought for at the start of the season to Leon Goretzka. Ryan Gravenberch, new signing from Ajax Amsterdam, is also fighting in central midfield during the season and also carries FC Bayern Munich around Konrad Laimer from RB Leipzig and would like to bring him to Säbener Straße free of charge in the summer.
Should it work out with a move from Laimer to FC Bayern Munich, Marcel Sabitzer’s playing time might be even shorter. But that cannot be the claim of the Austrian national player. A departure from the German record champions would probably be the result in order to get more cases. Like the Italian portal Calciomercato reported, with AC Milan and Juventus Turin, show two top clubs from Serie A on the midfielder, as also reported by hna.de.
FC Bayern Munich: Sabitzer in the focus of Serie A clubs
Juventus are said to be already planning an offer for Sabitzer, as Adrien Rabiot’s departure is apparently imminent and a successor is to be signed. In addition to “Juve” and AC Milan, AS Roma are also courting the 28-year-old, who was traded to the club by coach Jose Mourinho last summer. At that time, however, it did not work with a transfer to the Italian capital.
But you can rule out a departure in winter. FC Bayern Munich has big goals in the second half of the 2022/23 season and has already suffered from several long-term absences. For this reason, sports director Hasan Salihamidzic will not give up a professional without necessity. In addition, a transfer from Konrad Laimer would only be possible in the summer.
Meanwhile, FC Bayern Munich is keeping its eyes open for further reinforcements and has one German national player in sight. (smr)
