BORUSSIA Dortmund are reportedly close to sealing a deal for former Man Utd star Marcel Sabitzer.
The Australian midfielder, 29, appeared 18 times for the Red Devils last season after joining on loan from Bayern Munich.
Marcel Sabitzer is set for a move to Borussia Dortmund
Signed as cover for an injured Cristian Eriksen, Sabitzer failed to convince Erik ten Hag to make his move permanent.
Now, transfer experts Fabrizio Romano and Florian Plettenberg claim Dortmund are ready to unveil the Bayern Munich playmaker in a £16million transfer.
Previously, Sabitzer starred in the Bundesliga with RB Leipzig.
Bayern Munich forked out £13million to sign him in 2021.
However, Sabitzer struggled for form with the Bavarians, and was deemed surplus to requirements after 54 games for the club.
He was loaned to Man Utd in January, with the view to joining at the end of the campaign in a £22million deal.
Dutch tactician ten Hag was said to be an admirer, but they have since added Mason Mount to their ranks for £60million.
Meanwhile, Dortmund are desperate to strengthen their midfield following Jude Bellingham’s departure.

The England international signed for a huge £113million earlier in the summer.
Sabitzer is seen as the perfect replacement for their former talisman.
Should he join Dortmund, he will join a select group of players who have played for both clubs, including Raphael Guerreiro, Mario Götze and Mats Hummels.
