Bayern Munich chief Kahn in new blast at agent of Real Madrid, Chelsea target Alaba

Bayern Munich chief Oliver Kahn has taken fresh aim at the agent of David Alaba.

The Austria captain will leave in a Bosman transfer at the end of the season after Bayern refused to meet the demands of agent Pini Zahavi.

Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester City are all being linked with Alaba and Kahn told Kicker: “I was disappointed, but Alaba's agent is too far removed from reality.

"That's a shame, because we love Alaba. He is an extraordinary person and has always been candid with us. We have tried everything to keep him longer, but we have not been able to reach an agreement."

Kahn also spoke of Bayern's veteran posse: Manuel Neuer, Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Müller.

"Why not consider renewing their contracts if they play the way they play now?" said the German great.
