Morocco-Belgium attacking midfielder Ismael Saibari of PSV Eindhoven is being strongly linked with a transfer to Bayern Munich, with the Bundesliga side reportedly weighing up a move for the 25-year-old.
Data from Transfermarkt lists the probability of the switch at 79%, underlining the seriousness of Bayern’s interest in the right-footed No 34, who has emerged as one of the Eredivisie’s most valuable creative midfielders with an estimated market value of €40.00m. Although his contract details at PSV are not publicly specified, the lack of a confirmed expiry date has fuelled speculation over his longer-term future in Eindhoven and raised questions about whether he could eventually run down his deal and move as a free agent if no agreement is reached.
Born on 28 January 2001 in Terrassa, Spain, Saibari holds both Moroccan and Belgian nationality and operates primarily as an attacking midfielder. Standing at 1.85m, he offers a mix of physical presence and technique between the lines, attributes that appear to fit Bayern’s drive to refresh their midfield options.
Saibari’s growing reputation has been underpinned by his performances for PSV in the Eredivisie, with recent showings in the Dutch top flight helping to justify his €40m valuation. In his latest outing before the rumour surfaced, PSV faced domestic opposition in league action in early June 2026, with Saibari again deployed in his preferred advanced central role as the Eindhoven side continued their title push.
PSV signed Saibari earlier in his career and have overseen his development into a key first-team figure, with his dual-national background and technical profile making him a standout in the Dutch league. Should Bayern convert their interest into a formal bid, the move would represent a significant step up and could prove decisive in shaping Saibari’s career trajectory, his standing in European football and his potential to become a headline figure on the Champions League stage.
