David Alaba, the Austrian full-back of Nigerian origin, is eager to extend his contract with Bayern Munich, the club he has been with since the 2008-2009 season. However, negotiations have hit a roadblock as Alaba is seeking a substantial increase in his salary. He is requesting 8 million euros per year for his new contract, a significant jump from his current earnings of 2 to 2.5 million euros per season.
The disparity in financial terms has posed a challenge for Bayern Munich, as they find Alaba’s salary demand to be excessive. According to reports from Bild, the club’s leaders are willing to offer 6 million euros annually. The negotiations seem to be at an impasse, and it remains to be seen whether a compromise can be reached between the player’s expectations and the club’s financial considerations.
