German media target PSV and fear for FC Bayern after Saibari’s appearance: 'Not become cheaper'

Football-loving Germany has naturally also enjoyed the clash between Morocco and Brazil. As in the Netherlands, in the German media the arrows were also aimed at Ismael Saibari and the upcoming million-euro transfer from PSV to FC Bayern.

With a wonderful strike, Saibari proved once again why Bayern Munich is willing to pay him tens of millions. German media are therefore also enjoying the massively impressive goal against Brazil. ‘This won’t make him any cheaper,’ various authoritative newspapers point to PSV and the desired transfer fee for Saibari.

Saibari and PSV are in negotiations over a multimillion transfer but it is not done yet. The German top club recently already made an offer of €53 million (including bonuses on the table) but PSV would like to receive at least €55 million for the unleashed international.

‘Saibari’s spectacular goal probably won’t have made him any cheaper’, according to Kicker. ‘He coolly lobbed the ball over the Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson. ‘Saibari only touched the ball 33 times, but he was still useful. He completed 92 percent of his passes and carried out his role as a false nine properly’, Kicker analyzes.

‘Saibari caused a stir with a brilliant action in the 77th minute, when he made his way along the right flank, although the attack subsequently petered out. Based on these impressions, Saibari has the potential to become a Bayern player, which he also proved in the direct encounter in January when he scored a spectacular equalizer in the Champions League against Bayern.’

'Powerhouse Ismael Saibari hands out a business card: PSV player won’t need to introduce himself to Bayern anymore in the future', reports BILD, which also believes that 53 million euros will not be enough for PSV.

‘Vinicius Júnior counters the Bayern flirt’, BILD says about Real Madrid forward’s equalizer before halftime. The boulevard newspaper called Saibari’s strike a ‘suuuuuper lob’. ‘He flicks the ball elegantly over the goalkeeper into the empty goal. But the Bayern candidate deals Brazil a heavy blow. He surprised Brazil with his goal.’

BILD calls Saibari ‘an attacking star’, with whom Bayern already has a personal agreement. ‘A fine lob from Saibari’, writes the Suddeutsche Zeitung. ‘He showed why Vincent Kompany would like to bring this man from PSV to Bayern Munich.’ The local Müncher Merkur describes Saibari’s goal as a ‘magical moment’. Die Zeit describes the goal as ‘spectacular’.

And Saibari himself? Sober and cool as always. "We just went for the win. Brazil is a good team, so I think this is a logical result," Saibari told NOS in an interview. "We won the ball and they were very open, so then it’s a matter of running. It was a great pass from Brahim Diaz," said Ismael Saibari, who is presumably still a PSV player for up to a week.
