Liverpool told Konrad Laimer will join Bayern Munich
The report has claimed that Liverpool want to sign Laimer and have been considering making a move for the Austria international midfielder in the January transfer window.
The 25-year-old is out of contract at Borussia Dortmund at the end of the season.
However, Liverpool ‘have now learned from representatives around the deal that the player does indeed want to move to Munich’, according to 90min.
Manchester United have also been linked with Laimer, but he has now decided to move to Bayern instead.
The report has claimed that the defending Bundesliga champions have agreed terms with the midfielder over a summer move on a free transfer, but they could try to strike a deal with Dortmund n January to sign him in the middle of the season.
No big surprise
We do not think that Konrad Laimer deciding to move to Bayern Munich instead of Liverpool is a big surprise.
At all.
Bayern are the biggest, richest and most successful club in Germany, and the temptation to play for the Bavarian giants, win the Bundesliga regularly and also compete for the UEFA Champions League season after season is there for all players.
