Bayern Munich confirm Sabitzer transfer from RB Leipzig in €16m deal

 The Austrian midfielder reunites with Julian Nagelsmann after weeks of speculation, and will wear No 18 at Allianz Arena

Bayern Munich have completed the long-awaited transfer of Marcel Sabitzer, signing the Austrian international midfielder from Bundesliga rivals RB Leipzig.

Sabitzer is the third person to cross from Leipzig to Munich this summer - after manager Julian Nagelsmann joined the Bundesliga champions, followed by central defender Dayot Upamecano.

The central midfielder has signed a four-year contract until 2025 and will wear No 18. It is widely reported that the transfer fee is €16 million (£13.7m/$18.9m).
