At the end of the contract with RB Leipzig and announced for several months at Bayern Munich, Konrad Laimer has officially joined the Rekordmeister until the summer of 2027, the Bavarian club announced in a press release on Friday.
He was expected as the messiah, the Austrian international Konrad Laimer, 26, is thus the first summer recruit of Bayern Munich, who did not have to pay anything to offer the services of the defensive midfielder trained in Salzburg and arrived in Leipzig in the summer of 2017 from Red Bull Salzburg.
Laimer had been authorized to negotiate with clubs since January 1, 2023, six months before the end of his contract. Quite quickly, an agreement was reached with Bayern, with a completely different technical team, since at the time Julian Nagelsmann was coach, Hasan Salihamidzic the sporting director and Oliver Kahn chairman of the board.
Nagelsmann was dismissed on March 24, while Salihamidzic and Kahn suffered from a chaotic end to the season and were dismissed minutes after the eleventh consecutive German title.
Laimer arrives in an already very supplied defensive midfield sector at Bayern Munich, with Joshua Kimmich, Leon Goretzka, Ryan Gravenberch and Paul Wanner, while Marcel Sabitzer was loaned this winter until June 30, 2023 to Manchester United.
