Arsenal set to lose out to Bayern Munich in battle to sign classy Austrian

Arsenal will miss out on the signing of Marcel Sabitzer in this transfer window as the Austrian is heading to Bayern Munich instead.

He has just one year left on his current RB Leipzig deal and has refused to sign a new one.

Arsenal and Tottenham are two Premier League clubs who have been linked with a move for him for much of this summer.

His contract situation means that they could have got him on a cheap transfer.

However, he now looks set to remain in the Bundesliga with a new report on Todofichajes claiming that he will complete a transfer to Bayern.

The move will reunite him with his former manager, Julian Nagelsmann, who became the Bayern boss at the end of last season.

The Gunners have just landed Martin Odegaard from Real Madrid and they expected him to become their chief creator.

But he is probably not experienced enough to shoulder that responsibility at the Emirates, which would have made Sabitzer an ideal signing.

But he is heading to Bavaria now and he also doesn’t want to join another club apart from Bayern at the moment.

  1. I bet he was kept awake all night pondering wether it should be Arsenal or Bayern Munich. Decisions Decisions!!!!!!!!!

    1. No doubt Reggie, but just imagine if our amateur hour management team would have taken that Roma money for our 3-wheeled shopping cart and invested it into this most versatile of midfielders…I guess we can just add that to the list of recruitment decision boners

      1. But he was worth soooooooooo much more than that to us, we needed to keep and reward one of our Captains, for our player to look up to.

        1. It’s indicative of the problematic environment that has pervaded our club for far too long…most teams who are looking to sprinkle a healthy dose of senior players in the mix are doing so with the intention of minimizing errors on the pitch and providing the younger players with a role model or two to emulate, yet we seem to prescribe to a totally contrary philosophy…we’re such an unmitigated sh** show that we not only recruit these clowns, we reward them both monetarily and with the captain’s armband…seriously, when will we ever learn???

  2. Reggie,Ozzie,TRVL would have done a much better job on transfers this summer than MA&Edu, I’m certain of that.

    1. I would not have wasted money on white, would not have bought odergaard, would not have extended xhakas contract, would not have let Saliba leave and would have signed Bissouma. Just for starters Si.

      1. maybe he was right Reggie, as we would have been clearly on the same page in those regards
