FC Bayern Munich is the most successful football club in Germany. In our news ticker you will find all the important news about the record champions.
Goalkeeper Alexander Nübel will only rejoin record champions Bayern Munich after Manuel Neuer’s departure. “I haven’t set myself a deadline, under any circumstances. As long as Manuel Neuer is there, returning makes no sense – I’ve said that many times,” said the 28-year-old in a media round at the national team course in Frankfurt/Main.
Neuer’s contract in Munich ends in the summer, but there are currently some indications that the 38-year-old will extend
FC Bayern has taken the next step towards building a new professional performance center and will submit a building application to the city of Munich. As the association announced on Wednesday, this decision was made unanimously at a meeting of the supervisory board.
The German football record champions have been based on Säbener Straße since 1949. In April, the club announced that it would examine the construction of a new performance center on the site in order to maintain and improve the club’s sporting infrastructure in the long term.
FC Bayern has been fined heavily for setting off pyrotechnics by its fans. The sports court of the German Football Association (DFB) sentenced the Munich team to pay 150,000 euros after the events in the first round game of the DFB Cup against SSV Ulm (4-0).
The association can use up to 50,000 euros of this for security or violence prevention measures. According to the DFB, Bayern fans lit “at least 70 Bengal fires and four fireworks batteries” on August 16 at the start of the second half. The game was then briefly interrupted.
Leroy Sané’s contract with FC Bayern expires next summer. Will he extend or leave on a free transfer? As the TV channel Sky now reports, it currently looks like the 28-year-old will stay. Accordingly, both sides should be able to imagine extending the contract. An agreement is not yet in sight, but all parties are optimistic.
According to the report, salary is still a problem in the negotiations. According to the wishes of the Bayern bosses, Sané should forego his salary. The winger currently earns around 20 million euros gross including all possible bonuses. In the future it will probably be two to four million euros less. The background is that
As the report goes on to say, there is still no end to the negotiations in sight, but Sané’s departure in the winter is currently ruled out. Possible interested parties for Sané are Manchester United and Arsenal FC.
The injured Aleksandar Pavlović, Josip Stanišić and Sacha Boey put in extra shifts at FC Bayern at the start of the international break. Pavlović, after a broken collarbone, and Boey, after a torn meniscus in his left knee, each completed an individual session with the ball on the pitch in the morning.
Stanišić, in turn, reportedly ran laps around the training area on Säbener Straße after tearing the outer ligament in his right knee. The majority of Bayern’s professionals are currently traveling with the national team.
Bayern’s women’s team has to cope with another loss shortly before the next game in the Champions League. National player Lea Schüller is out of the game against Norwegian first division club Valerenga IF on Tuesday (from 9 p.m. in the t-online live ticker). “She’s not fit yet, hopefully again in a few days,” said coach Alexander Straus.
