PSV reject Bayern Munich €45m bid for Ismael Saibari

PSV Eindhoven have turned down an opening offer from Bayern Munich for Moroccan midfielder Ismael Saibari, with the Dutch champions holding firm on their valuation ahead of a potentially significant summer transfer move.

The initial bid from Bayern, understood to be worth €45 million plus add-ons, was not enough to convince PSV to part ways with one of their key players.

The club believe the proposal falls short of their asking price and have set a fixed valuation of €50 million as the starting point for any serious negotiations.

Despite the rejection, discussions between the two clubs are continuing, with sources indicating that talks remain constructive.

An agreement is still considered possible in the coming weeks as Bayern weigh up whether to improve their offer.

PSV’s stance reflects Saibari’s growing importance following an impressive season in the Netherlands.

The Moroccan international played a decisive role throughout the campaign, establishing himself as one of the standout performers in the Eredivisie.

Across all competitions, Saibari registered 19 goals and provided nine assists, a contribution that helped PSV secure domestic success and strengthened his reputation across Europe. His performances ultimately earned him recognition as one of the league’s top players.

Bayern Munich’s interest is part of a broader push to reinforce their midfield options this summer, but PSV’s firm valuation signals that any deal will require a significant financial commitment.

While PSV remain determined to retain control of negotiations, they are aware of the growing attention surrounding the midfielder, whose form has placed him firmly on the radar of several top European clubs.

For now, no agreement has been reached, but with talks ongoing and both sides still engaged, the situation remains open as the transfer window develops.
