FC Bayern, rumor: Does Sabitzer have to go to Laimer transfer?

With Konrad Laimer, an absolute dream player from coach Julian Nagelsmann is to come to FC Bayern. Should a transfer from Leipzig to Munich actually take place, this could have consequences for compatriot Marcel Sabitzer.

After a strong start to the season, the 28-year-old has now moved back into the second rank behind Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka. Again table football reports, those in charge of the German record champions are toying with the idea of ​​selling Sabitzers.

There was already talk of the Austrian leaving last summer, but Sabitzer ruled out a change at the time. Instead, he wanted to fight his way through Bayern and fight for a regular place. With another competitor in the squad, however, this view could change.

According to the report, in addition to central midfield, Laimer could also provide relief in the defensive back four. Accordingly, he is also planned in the plans of the Bayern bosses as an alternative to the right-back position should Benjamin Pavard leave the club as expected.

Laimer’s contract with RB Leipzig runs until the summer of 2023. No transfer fee would therefore be due for Bayern if there was a change.

FC Bayern, News: Kahn warns against overloading political messages

It overwhelms players and football itself. Football can no longer afford everything that is brought to it from outside,” said Kahn im OMR Podcast.

Of course, athletes are allowed to make political statements here and there, Kahn continued. “But he can’t take on tasks that others should actually take on to change things,” said the 53-year-old.
