Transfer news

Bayern Munich have taken a significant step forward in their pursuit of Moroccan international Ismael Saibari after head coach Vincent Kompany reportedly approved the club’s plans to sign the PSV Eindhoven star.

The Bundesliga giants are now pushing ahead with efforts to secure the midfielder’s signature as they look to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season and the upcoming FIFA World Cup.

Kompany Gives Transfer Green Light

According to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, Bayern have overcome one of the key internal hurdles in the deal after receiving Kompany’s full backing for the proposed move.

The Belgian coach is believed to be a strong admirer of Saibari’s qualities and sees the versatile attacker as a valuable addition to his squad.

With managerial approval now secured, Bayern have intensified their efforts to bring the Moroccan star to Munich.

Club to Club Talks Underway

Negotiations between Bayern Munich and PSV Eindhoven are reportedly ongoing as both clubs seek to find common ground on a potential transfer agreement.

Bayern’s objective is clear. The German champions are eager to complete the deal before the start of the World Cup in North America, allowing the player to settle into his new surroundings as quickly as possible.

While discussions continue, the outcome will largely depend on whether the two clubs can agree on a transfer fee.

Saibari Open to Bayern Move

Reports suggest that reaching a personal agreement with Saibari is unlikely to be a major obstacle.

According to Sky, Bayern have already submitted a formal written proposal to the player’s representatives, and the Moroccan international is said to be enthusiastic about the opportunity to join the German giants.

The player’s willingness to make the move has provided Bayern with additional confidence as negotiations progress.

PSV Holding Firm on Valuation

Despite Bayern’s determination, PSV Eindhoven remain in a strong negotiating position and are not expected to make the process easy.

The Dutch champions reportedly value Saibari at more than €60 million and are demanding a significant fee before considering any sale.

The high asking price reflects both the player’s importance to the team and his growing reputation as one of the most exciting Moroccan talents in European football.

Race Against Time

With the World Cup approaching, Bayern are hoping to accelerate discussions and avoid a prolonged transfer saga.

Saibari’s technical ability, creativity and versatility have made him one of the club’s priority targets, and Kompany’s endorsement has only strengthened Bayern’s commitment to completing the deal.

For now, negotiations remain ongoing, with the final outcome likely to depend on whether Bayern are willing to meet PSV’s financial demands for one of their most valuable assets.
