Gabriel Vidovic's future has apparently been decided.

FC Bayern is sending the highly talented youngster to the Netherlands.

Munich - There were enough interested parties from Germany and abroad.

Now FC Bayern has made a decision together with Gabriel Vidovic.

According to media reports, the 18-year-old is about to move to the Netherlands.

Vitesse Arnheim, known for promoting young players, should make the race for the offensive all-rounder.

The Croatian junior international played three times this season for the U23s in the regional league. Julian Nagelsmann also came on for the pros' thrashing of VfL Bochum.

There Vidovic was able to shine on his Bundesliga debut as a assist for Serge Gnabry, who scored the goal for FC Bayern to make it 7-0.

There were also inquiries from Germany.

As the “kicker” and the picture report, Borussia Mönchengladbach and Hertha BSC Berlin, among others, wanted to sign the native of Augsburg.

However, both clubs are considering a purchase option - not an issue for the record champions, who only extended with Vidovic at the end of February.

His contract on the Isar runs until June 30, 2025.

The management level on Säbener Strasse apparently believes that the highly talented attacking midfielder will be able to break through into the star ensemble after his return.

There are reasons for that.

In his first season in the men's division, he became one of the best players in the regional league with the U23s under coach Martin Demichelis.

As a reward, he was allowed to recommend himself to Julian Nagelsmann in preparation for the current season.

At Arnhem he follows in well-known footsteps.

Former FCB goalscorer Roy Maakay played for the Eredivisie team from 1993 to 97 at the beginning of his career.

He also meets a German coach when he is sixteenth in the table: Thomas Letsch, who used to work for RB Salzburg and is therefore well acquainted with NLZ manager Jochen Sauer, has been on the sidelines at Vitesse since 2020.
