David Alaba, the Austrian full-back of Nigerian origin, has expressed his desire to extend his contract with Bayern Munich, the club he has been with since the 2008-2009 season. However, negotiations have hit a snag as Alaba is seeking a significant increase in his salary.
The talented player currently earns between 2 and 2.5 million euros per season, but he is pushing for a substantial raise to 8 million euros per year in his new contract. This demand has raised eyebrows within the Munich club, which considers it excessive. According to reports from Bild, Bayern’s leadership is willing to offer 6 million euros annually, creating a notable gap between the player’s expectations and the club’s proposed figure.
The negotiations appear to be in a delicate phase, with both parties seemingly at odds over the financial terms of the contract extension. The resolution of this issue may take time as they work to find a mutually agreeable arrangement.
