According to Fabrizio Romano, the Austrian is keen on continuing his career with Erik ten Hag as his manager.

However, his deal with the Red Devils does not include an option to buy and therefore it will be up to Bayern and Tuchel to decide if he will be sold.

Under former manager Julian Nagelsmann, it had seemed that Sabitzer’s career at Bayern was over, but that could now change.

The report suggests that the final decision will be made “around May/June” time.
