Liverpool Monitoring Serge Gnabry as Bayern Contract Talks Stall
German reporting links Liverpool to the Bayern winger because wage-driven renewal negotiations have hit an impasse.
Overview
- Bayern want to keep Serge Gnabry but are unwilling to maintain a reported €17–19 million annual salary, with a pay cut expected for any extension.
- Christian Falk of BILD says Liverpool have the 30-year-old on a shortlist and Juventus have inquired, with both clubs wary of the wage level.
- If no agreement is reached by January 1, overseas clubs can open talks for a summer free transfer, a scenario viewed as likely to widen interest.
- Liverpool’s historically disciplined wage structure is a key factor in their caution, even as the club assesses wing options after selling Luis Díaz.
- A Spanish report from Fichajes claims Liverpool could explore a cut‑price January deal, though this remains unconfirmed and contrasts with free-transfer planning.
