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.

Manuel Neuer is about to extend his contract with FC Bayern and is expected to sign until 2026. What happens next is still unclear. The record champions certainly have no shortage of talented goalkeepers. 20-year-old Tom Ritzy Hülsmann is also attracting attention and is currently number one at the Austrian second division club SKN St. Pölten, to whom he is on loan. In 14 league games he only conceded eleven goals and kept eight clean sheets.
As the TV channel Sky now reports, there are some interested parties and even offers for the goalkeeper, who is more than two meters tall. We are talking about clubs from “higher leagues” in Germany and Austria. His contract with FC Bayern runs until 2026. If he changes in the summer, the Munich team would either have to sell him or extend his contract and then loan him out.

FC Bayern Munich could strengthen itself with a spectacular transfer. According to reports from “Mundo Deportivo”, Spanish European champion Dani Olmo, currently at financially struggling FC Barcelona, is on the Munich team’s wish list. A special feature: Olmo’s contract could be terminated without a transfer because he was only registered until the end of the year. Read more about this here. Barcelona have not yet reached an agreement on a permanent arrangement, which could open up opportunities for other clubs such as Bayern.
In addition to Munich, Arsenal and Manchester City are also said to be interested. Olmo, a former RB Leipzig player, had already set his sights on Bayern as a desired destination in the summer. Meanwhile, Barcelona President Joan Laporta remains calm: “We are working on meeting the financial conditions to be able to register him.” But it remains unclear whether the Catalans will be able to raise the required 60 million euros in time.

Konrad Laimer’s appearance in FC Bayern’s Bundesliga game on Friday evening (8:30 p.m. in the live ticker on t-online) is probably questionable. As “Bild” reports, the Austrian was missing from the final training session on Thursday. But the reason is a happy one: Laimer is not suffering from any illness or injury, but rather he is becoming a father for the first time. When exactly the child enters the world is questionable.
After the injuries to Sacha Boey and Josip Stanisic, a loss by Laimer would be extremely bitter for the Munich team because it would mean the loss of their next full-back.
In the top game against Rasenballsport Leipzig, coach Vincent Kompany can again rely on Harry Kane, Alphonso Davies and Serge Gnabry. All three players were able to complete team training and are an option. Kompany confirmed this at the press conference on Thursday. But it is still unclear whether there will be enough for the starting eleven.

According to a report by “Bild”, Serge Gnabry was able to complete parts of the team training. The Munich offensive player recently had to take a break due to knee problems. A game against Leipzig on Friday is still open.
Bayern have to do without Manuel Neuer (broken rib), Sacha Boey (ankle ligament injury), João Palhinha (torn muscle bundle) and Hiroki Itō (retraining after metatarsal fracture).
Defender Josip Stanišić is hoping for a comeback this year after tearing the lateral ligament in his knee. Star striker Harry Kane should be back against Leipzig after tearing a fiber in his right thigh. Alphonso Davies could also return against RB after a torn muscle fiber.
