Next Saibari Show at the World Cup: Bayern’s New Signing Leads Morocco to Victory | OneFootball

Ismael Saibari continues his impressive World Cup run. The soon-to-be Bayern Munich signing scored the decisive goal in Morocco’s 1-0 victory over Scotland, once again sparking excitement in Munich.

Bayern Munich likely followed Ismael Saibari’s second World Cup appearance with particular interest. After all, the Moroccan international’s move to Munich is imminent.

And the 25-year-old once again put his best foot forward.

In Morocco’s 1-0 victory over Scotland in Group C, Saibari needed just a few seconds to decide the match. Following his dream chip shot against Brazil in the first group match, the attacking player immediately followed it up with another highlight.

Saibari scores after 69 seconds

The soon-to-be Bayern Munich signing got off to a perfect start in the match.

After less than a minute and a half, the ball found its way to Saibari in the penalty area; from a tight angle, he didn’t hesitate for a second and blasted the ball into the Scottish net from about seven meters out.

The goal not only sent Moroccan fans into ecstasy but is also likely to have brought great satisfaction to Säbener Straße.

With his second World Cup goal in two games, Saibari impressively confirms his exceptional form.

Anticipation is growing in Munich

The attacking player had already made headlines with a spectacular chip in the 1-1 draw against Brazil. Now he followed right up with another goal against Scotland.

This development comes at a very opportune time for FC Bayern. After all, the Munich club is investing a considerable sum in the Moroccan international.

According to consistent media reports, Bayern and PSV Eindhoven have already agreed on a total package of just under 55 million euros. The final details are said to have been worked out in the meantime.

Every strong performance on the World Cup stage underscores why Vincent Kompany was so determined to sign the 25-year-old.

According to several media outlets, the transfer is now in the final stages.

According to AFP, Saibari was even absent from a recent training session with the Moroccan national team. The reason is said to have been a medical exam at FC Bayern, which was organized during the World Cup in the U.S.

If everything went according to plan, the official announcement of the transfer could come as early as the next few days.

It has long been known that Vincent Kompany is a strong advocate of the transfer.

The Bayern coach particularly values the Moroccan’s versatility. Saibari can play both in attacking midfield and in several positions on the offensive end. In addition, he impresses with his stamina and his intense work off the ball.

He’s currently showcasing exactly these qualities at the World Cup.

With two goals in the first two group stage matches, Saibari has been one of the tournament’s standout players so far. If he maintains this form, Bayern fans’ anticipation for the upcoming new signing is likely to grow even further.

It appears that Munich is not only getting a talented offensive player, but also a player who seems ready to take the next step at the highest level.
