Serie A giants ASRomahave set their sights onBayern MunichmidfielderMarcel Sabitzer. However, the Italian club faces a significant obstacle as they pursue the Austrian playmaker.
According toGianluca DiMarzio, Roma’s attempts to secure Sabitzer’s services have encountered a stumbling block.
While Sabitzer remains one of the preferred midfield targets for theGiallorossi, the player is determined to fight for his place atBayern Munichand impress manager Thomas Tuchel.
Sabitzer recently returned toBayernafter a six-month loan spell atManchester United. The versatile midfielder made 18 appearances under Erik ten Hag’s guidance in England.
During his time at Old Trafford, the Austrian international netted three goals, two of which came in the Europa League. Unfortunately, his season was cut short due to a meniscus ιɴjυɾу.
However, the Bundesliga champions want to sell Sabitzer permanently. ButRomado not have the funds for expensive transfers. They have completed two signings this summer (Houssem Aouar and Evan Ndicka), and both were free transfers.
With two years remaining on his contract, the German giants have made it clear that they have no intention of loaning Sabitzer out again.
This stance has presented a predicament forRoma, leaving them with the task of devising an approach that satisfies both parties.
Roma want to sign Sabitzer to bolster their midfield options and add creativity to their ranks. The Austrian’s technical prowess, vision, and goal-scoring ability make him an enticing prospect for the Italian club.
Nevertheless, negotiations betweenRomaandBayern Munichwill be interesting as both teams seek a favourable resolution.
Also, Roma’s transfer shortlist does not єɴԀ with Sabitzer. They haveScott McTominayand Renato Sanches on their radar.
McTominay could leave United this summer as the club seeks to raise funds, while Sanches might want fresh beginnings after struggling at Paris Saint-Germain.
