Real Madrid brought one member of the German national team – and will allegedly try and get another one. The big question is whether they will manage to pair them up this summer, although there is a possibility that winger Serge Gnabry will join Antonio Rudiger at Santiago Bernabeu.Such a scenario is announced by the renowned AS, although they leave enough space for debate on the realization of the job, and state the reasons why the former member of Arsenal and Wolfsburg could end up in the camp of European champions.Sat 21:45: (3.00) Italy (3.30) Germany (2.55)The first is the fact that Gnabry is entering the last year of his contract and will certainly not stay in Munich. He is not satisfied with the offer to continue cooperation, as the executives proposed him a salary of 19 million euros gross – which is close to 10 million euros net – but below those of the team’s highest-paid players, such as Robert Lewandowski, Thomas Muller or Manuel Neuer. Gnabry has already rejected that proposal and said that he will not sit at the table to negotiate until the other side improves the conditions. As Bayern do not plan that and do not want to get into a situation like they had with David Alaba and lose him next June without compensation, the Bavarians will probably agree to a transfer at some point during the upcoming transfer window.Mane shook Bayern’s hand – four times the salary at Allianz ArenaThere are plenty of suitors: Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Juventus, PSG. Although, there is only one European champion. That’s why Real Madrid hold the pole position. Especially since they failed to bring in Kylian Mbappe and are now determined to strengthen their flank side positions in the attack. Compared to the Frenchman, Gnabry is sort of a downgraded version of what they wanted but the German is certainly an attractive and efficient player. Which is proven last season: 17 goals and ten assists.##EDITORS_CHOICE##AS adds that the Real Madrid management has been in contact with Serge Gnabry’s agents for months, but that the whole deal is on hold. It has been postponed because Bayern have a lot of work to do at the Allianz Arena and are trying in every way to keep Robert Lewandowski. Only when that situation gets an epilogue – either in the form of a transfer to Barcelona or a new contract – will Gnabry’s future be at focus.
