Sabitzer has impressed on his loan spell and scored twice midweek against SevillaRex
He scored both Manchester United’s goals in the Europa League draw with Sevilla.
The Austrian midfielder unsurprisingly would like his move to Manchester to become permanent.
And United boss Erik ten Hag is also keen to keep him.
Bayern have made it clear they will not stand in his way.
But they are refusing to let him go on the cheap.
Although Sabitzer, 29, was on the bench more than the starting line-up before he came to Manchester, he still has two years left on his contract.
And Bayern have made it clear they want at least £20 million – plus a potential further £5m in add-ons – if United sign him this summer.
Although at least one new striker is the priority for Ten Hag, he is also keen to add midfield strength to his squad.
