The most important things at a glance
England star stays in Munich
Winter newcomer Eric Dier remains in Munich. The club confirmed this on Saturday. After his future had been clarified, Dier himself focused entirely on sport. “I am very happy in Munich. Now my future is settled and I can concentrate exclusively on my performance and how I can help the club,” said the 30-year-old in a statement from the German champions on Saturday. “We want to win games and titles again, even if it’s a difficult phase for us at the moment.”
According to the club, the contract of the 49-time England international has been extended by one season until June 30, 2025 due to a mutually agreed clause. Dier moved to the German record champions on loan from Tottenham Hotspur in January.
Davies to Real – for 70 million euros?
There have been discussions about Alphonso Davies’ future for weeks. Real Madrid are said to be very interested in the FC Bayern star, who still has a contract in Munich until 2025. “Bild” now wants to find out what an interested club has to pay for the left-back in order to sign him.
Accordingly, Bayern must receive an offer of 70 million euros in order to poach the 23-year-old. It is still unclear whether there have already been or are concrete offers for Davies. Just like the fact whether a contract extension is completely out of the question.
Sané will probably be out against Freiburg
Bayern Munich will apparently have to do without Leroy Sané in the Bundesliga away game at SC Freiburg on Friday evening (8:30 p.m./DAZN). According to “Sport Bild”, the ailing national player is out. However, there is hope for the second leg of the round of 16 in the Champions League on Tuesday against Lazio, it was said. An alternative for Sané would be Mathys Tel.
Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel had already questioned the use of his offensive player on Thursday. “He’s someone who can tolerate pain incredibly well. He’s felt something in the last few weeks. Maybe he’s been biting his teeth a little too much. I sense that he’s not completely free. He has a lot of aches and pains and is paying a little for the overload took its toll,” said Tuchel. You have to “look from day to day”.
Alphonso Davies returns to the squad for the game against Freiburg after recovering from a knee injury. In addition to the suspended Matthijs de Ligt and the long-term injured Bouna Sarr, Serge Gnabry, Kingsley Coman, Sacha Boey and Noussair Mazraoui are still missing.

Report: Bayern interested in Portugal star
FC Bayern is apparently interested in Portuguese central defender António Silva from Benfica Lisbon. According to a report by the medium “Record”, the Munich-based company has already sent scouts several times to observe the 20-year-old on site. Discussions about a possible change could take place in the coming months. Silva is one of the greatest defensive talents in Europe.
The Portuguese international still has a contract in Lisbon until 2027, but a release clause of 100 million euros. The courting of Silva is unlikely to be easy for Bayern: Manchester United are also said to be interested in the defender.
