Bayern Munich have again signed Marcel Sabitzer on a four-year deal.

It was confirmed from Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic on Saturday that they were working on a deal for the Austria international, and reports suggest he will cost approximately €16million.

From all indications Sabitzer would have been expected to fetch a larger fee, however the 27-year-old who joined Leipzig from Rapid Vienna in 2014 has fairly 12 months to run on his contract.

The Austrian will now be linking up with old teammate, Julian Nagelsmann, who left Leipzig for Bayern at the end of last season and centre-back Dayot Upamecano.

Sabitzer has maintained the central midfielder position all through.
