FC Bayern: Contract talks with Choupo-Moting before completion

3rd best scorer on the team

The contract talks between Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (33) and FC Bayern, which have been dragging on for several weeks, have reportedly come to a positive end. According to “Sky”, the people of Munich agreed on a contract for another year with the native of Hamburg. A few days ago, “Sport Bild” also reported on a basic agreement, although the question of duration and salary was still open at the time.

According to new information from the TV broadcaster, the record champion was able to convince Choupo-Moting to run until 2024 after sports director Hasan Salihamidzic made intensive efforts to get the attacker. However, there is no option to extend it. According to the previous report, the national player of Cameroon preferred a period until 2026. The legal footer on Säbener Straße is currently expected to collect 3.5 million euros per year. As the magazine reported, citing its own information, the player side requires a two-digit signature until 2024 million amount.

When the game is completed, the Munich strikers with Choupo-Moting and Mathys Tel see themselves well positioned for the coming season, it is said. Choupo-Moting, represented by the ROGON agency, who was trained at Hamburger SV, FC St. Pauli and Altona 93, among others, is the third-best scorer in the Nagelsmann team this season, behind Jamal Musiala and Serge Gnabry, and has controlled 24 games across all competitions he contributed to 19 goals.

In the medium term, the club bosses around Sport Director Hasan Salihamidzic and CEO Oliver Kahn have meanwhile clearly defined their transfer goal for the striker position internally, reported “Sport Bild” further: Harry Kane from Tottenham Hotspur fits best into the FCB system, should either be in the summer or come in 2024 – in the latter case, the currently third most valuable center forward in the world would be available for free, Bayern then reckon they have good chances in poker. In 2023, the financial options are initially limited due to the unplanned winter transfer from keeper Yann Sommer (8 million euros) and the top-class commitments of last summer.
