David Alaba: will he stay at Bayern?
The situation around the Austrian remains in place.
Now the association creates clear facts.
David Alaba has been under contract with FC Bayern * since 2008.
His contract expires in 2021.
The negotiations for an extension have been going on for months - with no result.
Update from November 1, 2020:
The
FC Bayern
has the transfer poker for
David Alaba
like a hammer-decision.
In the BR program “Blickpunkt Sport”,
FCB President Herbert Hainer announced
on Sunday evening that the club
had
withdrawn
its
offer to extend the contract
.
“A
new situation
arose
over the weekend
.
We made a very good offer to David and his advisor a long time ago.
We negotiated for months, "said the Bayern boss.
"And
told David's
advisor
last time
that we wanted clarity by the end of October."
But the Alaba side apparently did not comply with this request.
“We didn't hear anything until yesterday - our sports director Hasan Salihamidzic then actively checked with the advisor again.
The answer was that the offer is still unsatisfactory and that we should think further.
We then decided to take the offer off the table completely - that is, there is no longer any offer. "
Boom!
@FCBayern withdraws offer to @David_Alaba, says President Hainer in BP Sport.
The Alaba side had let the deadline pass by the end of October to decide on the Bayern offer.

Proceed with the Alaba situation - expert with urgent advice: "He should know ..."
Update from November 1, 2020:
The situation around
David Alaba
and his future at
FC Bayern
remains in place.
If the current reports are to be believed, there is a standstill between both parties when it comes to extending the contract.
According to
Sport Bild
, a
third round of negotiations
at the end of October should have
failed
.
The
kicker
in turn reported the interest of numerous top clubs, including
Real Madrid
and
FC Barcelona
.
And Liverpool FC also seems to have an eye on the Austrian given the long downtime of defense chief Virgil van Dijk.
Bayern and Alaba still have time
to clarify
the
future
, albeit not much time.
Lothar Matthäus
sees the ball still lying in the Alaba camp and advises the 28-year-old on
Sky 90
to
extend it
: “He should know what he has at Bayern.
The esteem he enjoys in Munich cannot be greater anywhere - with those responsible, with the fans ”.
Also
Hansi Flick
stressed after the laborious
2: 1 victory over 1. FC Köln
again that he still hoped "that he signs with Bayern.
Also because he knows what the current situation is in Munich.
It's a lot of fun with the team and we have a good atmosphere.
We play successful football and the club is one of the best in the world. "
Matthäus also
sees another decisive advantage on Bayern's side: he can play in
central defense
at the record champions
- against Cologne, Flick even let Alaba
play
in his favorite
midfield position
after being substituted on
.
That Bayern again improve their offer to Alaba - there is talk of a base salary of eleven million plus bonus payments of six million euros - seems unlikely, Matthäus believes.
“Karl-Heinz Rummenigge is patient, he has already shown that.
All clubs have less income. "
Alaba bang: crazy sum is being traded!
Is he doing the Thiago now?
Update from October 29th, 2:23 pm:
While the sporty
"Hansi attack" was
the buzzword on Säbener Strasse this week, the
"Alaba dilemma" is
the major construction site in
FC Bayern's
personnel
planning
- but has been since Months.
Because even at the end of October there is no sign of a contract extension with the 28-year-old.
A third round of negotiations has apparently failed again, which
is said to have moved
the
FCB bosses
to a general rethink in terms of early contract extension * with the top stars.
In addition, the list of prospects for Alaba is not getting any smaller.
The
FC Barcelona
supposed to be the defender of the championship record as interested as
Real Madrid
and
Juventus
.
Now
Liverpool * should
even deal with Alaba, as
Football Insider
reported.
Accordingly, the Reds are ready to put an incredible 65 million euros on the table for the defender.
The reason: Jürgen Klopp's team had to do without its captain for months.
Virgil van Dijk
suffered a serious knee injury in the derby against Everton - which is why Liverpool are now allegedly looking for a replacement in their central defense.
It
remains to be seen
whether that will be found in the form of
David Alaba
.
David Alaba (FC Bayern): Contract chaos continues - worst-case scenario threatens
Munich -
David Alaba
delivered a solid Champions League game early Tuesday evening.
The Austrian did his job
properly
in the Zitter win in
Moscow
(2-1), but occasionally had a few wobbles in his game.
Anyway, the main thing is won, some in the Munich camp will (rightly) think.
What
FC Bayern
meanwhile can not be indifferent to is the ongoing
contract farce around David Alaba
.
Now the bickering seems to be going into the next round.
FC Bayern Munich: will Alaba's expiring contract be extended?
Tough negotiations continue
Alaba's working paper
expires in summer
2021
.
The
Bayern
want very much like to extend with the regulars.
Basically,
Alaba
wants that too, but probably only if the appreciation in his person is also noticeable financially.
Since March, the Austrian has hired a new player agent -
Pini Zahavi
*.
The Israeli, known in the industry for multi-million dollar transfers (for example Neymar) and tough negotiations, has become the linchpin of the Alaba negotiations.
Only recently had Bayern honorary president
Uli Hoeneß
accused
him of
demanding an oversized commission.
Born in Ulm, he described the player's agent as a “greedy piranha” *.
Because of
Zahavi in
particular
, the negotiations with the Alaba side would drag on.
+
Pini Zahavi probably played a decisive role in the fact that the contract negotiations between FC Bayern and David Alaba stall.
The consultant is asking for more money.

FC Bayern Munich: Probably another conversation between the Alaba side and club management - no result
After two intensive discussions in the summer, there should have been another meeting between the consultant and the club management a few days ago.
As the
SportBild reported
on Wednesday,
Zahavi
and
Alaba's father George
, the main advisor to the defender, met with the Munich executive
suite
last Friday
.
In the talks with CEO
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge
and sports director
Hasan Salihamidzic
, however, there would have been no agreement again.
A contract extension is therefore becoming increasingly unlikely.
Accordingly, it fails once again on the financial side.
The record champion * is now even said to offer a five-year contract instead of a four-year contract, but the basic salary is less open.
Ultimately, the Munich would offer eleven million per year plus possible bonuses, so that
Alaba
would move into the area of top earners in the squad *.
Obviously not enough
for
Zahavi
and father George.
FC Bayern Munich: Alaba extension stalled - is the worst-case scenario threatened?
It is interesting that
Zahavi
not only represents
Alaba
, but also
Robert Lewandowski
*.
So he knows how much salary the Pole
receives
at
Bayern
.
The six-time Austrian Footballer of the Year should probably earn at least as much.
The Alaba side is also said to be disappointed that
Rummenigge
and
Jan-Christian Dreesen broke
an alleged promise from 2016.
At that time it was about guaranteed playing times in midfield, Alaba's position in the national team.
In retrospect,
Zahavi
and
George Alaba consider
this promise not to be fulfilled.
The fact that no agreement could apparently be reached after three negotiations makes a contract extension increasingly unlikely.
The
Alaba side
wants more money,
FC Bayern is
sticking to its principles - at the moment it doesn't look like either of the two parties will change its position.
Therefore, the triple winner threatens the worst-case scenario: In 2021
Alaba
could
leave FCB free of charge.
That would be a bitter loss not only because of its market value of 65 million euros, but above all from a sporting point of view.
