When he came in a package deal with coach Julian Nagelsmann from RB Leipzig, it was said that Bayern Munich did a great job for little money and that his signing will significantly increase the “depth” of the roster. The justification for such assessments was his games in the Leipzig shirt, where he earned the label of one of the best midfielders in the Bundesliga, but ever since Marcel Sabitzer put pen to paper to join the Bavarians, he is not even a pale shadow of that player from a year, two or three ago.02.04. Sat 17:30: (7.50) Freiburg (4.60) Bayern (1.48)Because he arrived with the explicit wish of the manager – the sporting sector led by Hasan Salihamidzic, after a long process of scouting, concluded that he is not “compatible” with Goretzka and Kimmich – Sabitzer was expected to play a big role in Munich. However, it did not work out so far as his stats among the German champions are severely forgettable – until the ongoing international break, the Austrian started only six times for Bayern, appeared in a total of 26 games (a little more than 30 minutes per match), with no impact what so ever – no goals, no assists. Only two yellow cards.The epilogue to the story: respected Bild reports that the Austrian could leave the Allianz Arena after only a year.The club is not happy with his performances, which is understandable considering what he has shown, and Sabitzer is not thrilled with his status. Hence, according to the same source, there is a great possibility of parting ways.Manchester and Bayern in battle over the next Dutch jewelBayern paid only 16.5 million USD for Sabitzer because he was entering the last year of his contract with RB Leipzig. His current market value is close to 30 million USD, but it is unlikely that the German giants will make that much money after a bad season the player had.What is certain is that, if a transfer happens, the budget for salaries will be significantly relieved, since Bayern are allocating 11 million on Sabitzer’s salary and additional expenses.For now, there is no speculation about what his next club could be.Marcel Sabitzer is considering leaving FC Bayern. According to the player’s family entourage, One reason for this is Nagelsmann. The coach hardly speaks to the Austrian. The problem between Nagelsmann and Sabitzer comes as a surprise since the coach himself pushed for him [Bild] pic.twitter.com/MafIxP7dWp— Bayern & Germany (@iMiaSanMia) March 22, 2022
