Austrian midfielder Konrad Laimer has turned down a move to the Premier League. The RB Leipzig player has already reached an agreement with Bayern Munich, where, if nothing unusual happens, he will join next summer. Konrad Laimer's future lies with Bayern Munich. That, at least, is the feeling that emerges from a report published today by Sport Bild.

According to this media, the player has already reached a "verbal agreement" with a Bavarian club that, if nothing unusual happens, he will join at the end of the current season. The Austrian is six months away from the end of his contract with RB Leipzig, when the club and player will sign the relevant documents and officially agree on a summer transfer next January.

In recent times, two Premier League giants, Liverpool and Chelsea, have both been trying to sign him. In this regard, the source adds that the player has already said no explicitly to the possibility of joining Stamford Bridge, but that, on the other hand, he has not been so adamant with the Reds. In fact, the Anfield Road outfit look set to press their case until the very last moment.

If the forecasts are confirmed, next season Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann will be able to count on a midfielder he has already had the opportunity to coach during his time at die roten bullen. In fact, it was the coach who played a decisive role in the deal. As is often the case, his performance has not gone unnoticed. In fact, in addition to the already known interest of Manchester United, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, Liverpool are now interested.

Klopp wanted Laimer

According to Kicker, the Reds' coach, the German Jürgen Klopp, would be delighted to welcome this player who stands out for his verticality, work capacity and dynamism. Recruited by Die Roten Bullen in the summer of 2017 (in exchange for €7m), Laimer is under contract until June 2023, a detail that could favour his departure this summer for a not excessively high fee. However, the Teutonic leaders are currently considering a renewal rather than a transfer.
