“Sky”, “BILD” and “SPORT1” have now also confirmed the reports from England. According to “BILD” information, the club and the players agreed last night. According to “SPORT1”, Gnabry will sign a new 4-year contract until 2026.
Gnabry decides against England and for Bayern
It is unclear when the contract will be signed and officially announced. According to “The Athletic” information, Gnabry will sign a new contract with the German record champions in the coming days. “Sky”, on the other hand, expects Bayern to be able to confirm the extension this Friday.
The winger has recently been associated primarily with clubs from the English Premier League (including Chelsea FC and Manchester City), but in the end decided to stay at Bayern. Rumor has it that Gnabry had an offer of 17-19 million euros until recently. It is open whether Bayern have improved this again.
The offensive all-rounder switched from Werder Bremen to FC Bayern for eight million euros in the summer of 2017 and, after returning on loan from TSG Hoffenheim, has become an important part of FCB. In 171 appearances for the Reds, Gnabry scored 64 goals and prepared another 40.
