Dortmund was reportedly paying Bayern 15-20 million euros ($17-22 million) for the midfielder.
Sabitzer starred for Leipzig before following coach Julian Nagelsmann to Bayern in 2021. But he failed to find his place in Bayern바카라™s star-filled midfield and was ultimately loaned to Manchester United for the second half of last season.

Sabitzer is Dortmund바카라™s second reinforcement in midfield after the signing of Felix Nmecha from Wolfsburg to compensate for Bellingham바카라™s departure. The club replaced left back RaphaĂ«l Guerreiro, who joined Bayern, with Ramy Bensebaini from Borussia Mönchengladbach.
