Marcel Sabitzer

Marcel Sabitzer of Borussia Dortmund was born in Graz, Austria on 17 March 1994 (age 30)

Marcel Sabitzer was born on 17 March 1994 in Austria. As a central midfielder for Borussia Dortmund, he wields his craft on the green expanse with a sure-footedness and composure that's a mark of his maturity. Standing at 5ft 10in (1.78m) and tipping the scales at 11st 13lb (76kg), Sabitzer also dons the number 20 jersey. Apart from his club exploits, this Austrian force has also achieved international recognition with the Austria national team. His market value currently hovers around the £17m mark, according to Transfermarkt. His bond with Borussia Dortmund is secure until 30 June 2027.

Sabitzer's journey in professional football took flight with Admira Wacker Modling in July 2010. Over a span of three seasons, he amassed a total of eight goals from 45 league appearances. His performances caught the eye of Rapid Vienna, who secured his services in January 2013 for approximately £300k. During his time at Rapid Vienna, he found the net 10 times in 45 appearances over two seasons.

In July 2014, RB Leipzig took notice of his knack for goals, signing him from Rapid Vienna for a fee of roughly £1.8m. His stint at RB Leipzig saw him bag a total of 42 goals from 192 league appearances across, not to mention a brief loan spell during 2014 - 2015 at Red Bull Salzburg where he scored 19 goals in 33 matches.

Bayern Munich seized the opportunity to add Sabitzer to their ranks in August 2021 for a sum northeast of £14m. In his ongoing spell at Bayern, he has amassed two goals from 40 league appearances. He also had a short loan tenure at Manchester United during 2022 and 2023, making 11 appearances.

From his Bayern Munich chapter, the next stop was Borussia Dortmund in July 2023, which forked out an estimated £16m for his services. He has played a total of 30 league matches for the club so far, scoring four goals.

Sabitzer's exploits extend beyond national boundaries, marked by his participation in the Champions League for Borussia Dortmund and Austria's Euro 2024 stint, Nations League 2024 - 2025, and the Euro Qualifiers 2022 - 2024. He contributed with goals and showed perseverance in these tournaments, further enhancing his stature in the sport.
