The uncertain contractual situation around Bayern-Star has been a hot topic in the media and also within FC Bayern Munich for some time.
Last week at the latest, the Munich team officials got tired and withdrew the offer made to the ÖFB team player for the extension (more on this >>>).
Without communicating it directly to David Alaba, Bayern president Herbert Hainer addressed the press with this delicate subject, which in turn did not please the Viennese at all (more on this >>>).
Now Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic has spoken, asking the Bosnian questions about the current situation ahead of the Champions League clash with “Sky’s” Red Bull Salzburg.

Salihamadzic on the deadline: “We had to react at some point”
“I can only say once more what happened. We negotiated, we presented an offer to David, which he declined. We sat down again ten days ago and presented an improved offer. We set a deadline for this that expired this weekend,” Salihamidzic tries to clarify .
In fact, a few weeks ago Bayern officials said they did not want to put a deadline on David Alaba before them. “That was three or four weeks ago. We wanted to have certainty in planning for such an important personnel issue. At some point we have to react and know how things will go next. That’s why we all made that decision at the club.”
Salihamidzic does not have the impression that the negotiations were not lacking that weekend. “I spoke to his advisor again this weekend and I spoke to David on Sunday. But it didn’t turn out much.”
Praise is still possible? “I don’t know how to get together”
So will the twelve-year relationship between David Alaba and FC Bayern Munich finally come to an end this summer? According to Hasan Salihamidzic, it definitely looks like this, but the Bosnian still leaves a little back door open when it comes to Alaba’s possible whereabouts.
“In life and in football: never say never. But I no longer know how we should get together. We made an offer that was rejected. Now we have to deal with the fact that David will leave us,” said “Brazzo.” .
Alaba recently highlighted that it hurt a lot when Bayern approached him with a possible trade, at that time a possible trade with Leroy Sané and Manchester City was in the room.
“During this transfer period, when we knew that Corona would put a lot of financial pressure on all the clubs, all the clubs looked for constructive ideas. I briefly discussed this idea with Zahavi, but that was dropped when there was no offer,” says Salihamidzic
Free transfer Praise a “super disaster”
So far, there is no indication that Alaba will be able to leave Bayern Munich in winter. On the part of the Munich team, it is clear that the season will end at the club.
“David is a free signing in the summer. If such a player leaves the club for free, it is an absolute disaster. That is why we spoke briefly, but nobody approached us with such clarity,” says the sports director about possible offers for the Austrian.
“We are all professionals. We will treat him in an absolutely professional way. We value him very much, he is a first level player. He played sensationally, he won the Champions League, he is very important for our team. So we all become professionals with him Avoid the situation”, Salihamidzic said.
