Matteo Maric's transfer from RB Salzburg to FC Bayern Munich can be considered a done deal, according to Sky Germany's sources.
Transfer journalist Florian Plettenberg confirms that a full agreement has been reached by the Bavarians with the player’s side.
The 16-year-old talent signed a contract earlier today and will move to the Säbener Straße campus in the new season.
Salzburg wanted to extend his contract, but the player’s side requested a release clause which the club was not willing to include.
The deal has also been given the green light by Fabrizio Romano, regarding the German record champions' efforts to sign attacking midfielder.
With a small compensation fee due, Maric – like Jamal Musiala and Lennart Karl before him – will initially be slated for the youth academy.
