Bayern Munich board member Oliver Kahn was pessimistic about a late deal in the contract debate with Austrian soccer star David Alaba. “The attitude of the club is clear. We rolled out the red carpet for David Alaba and went to our limits. David and especially his advisor Pini Zahavi did not walk this red carpet,” said Kahn of “Sport Bild” (Wednesday) in Interview. “So we re-rolled it at some point.” When asked if the carpet could be redeployed, the former national goalkeeper replied: “At the moment I don’t see how it should happen.” As it seems, “it’s reorienting itself. We have to accept that.”
The 28-year-old’s contract expires next summer, making Alaba a free transfer. “We tried everything to convince David to renew at Bayern. Of course it hurts to lose him, not just financially. But we had set limits, and those were not crown limits,” said the 51-year-old. Boat.
In November, FC Bayern withdrew their contract offer after Alaba and Zahavi waived a deadline set by the club. Since then there has been radio silence. There were no further talks, CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge last reported on Sport1’s “double pass.”
On Tuesday, Alaba was named “Austrian Footballer of the Year” for the seventh time in the choice made by the Austrian Press Agency among Bundesliga coaches. In the interview he said succinctly: “My personal feeling has not changed. I am happy to be part of this team. I have a contract until the summer and we have set high goals as a team that I want to achieve.”
