Newly crowned French champions Paris Saint-Germain are hot on the trails of Bayern Munich’s Austrian international utility man David Alaba, according to a report by German broadcaster Sky Sport Deutschland, aired moments ago.
According to the report, talks between Bayern over a contract extension are on standby as Alaba is asking for €15 million gross per season. Given the financial effects of the COVID-19 crisis, this is not a financial undertaking that Bayern are too keen on taking on.
This has, the report continues, prompted PSG director Leonardo to ignite an interest in Alaba who Inter have been linked to recently, as coach Antonio Conte wants reinforcements in that area of the pitch.
The Austrian player, born in 1992, came up the youth ranks at Bayern and has played for the Bavarian giants all his career, baring a 6 month spell on loan at Hoffenheim in 2011.
So far he has featured 379 times across all competitions for Bayern Munich scoring 30 goals in the process and his current contract expires at the end of June 2021.
