Date premiere for the annual general meeting of FC Bayern Munich

Things can get down to business at those AGMs. This has been proven over the past few years, when there has been repeated criticism from members. The focus was often on FCB’s commitment in and with Qatar. Previous meetings when Uli Hoeneß was still in charge are unforgettable – the outburst of anger on November 12, 2007 (“Your shitty mood, you are responsible for it and not us!”) has long been legendary.

Exactly 16 years later, Hoeneß’ successor as Bayern President, Herbert Hainer, is now inviting people to the annual general meeting in the Rudi Sedlmayer Hall. This year the event will take place on a Sunday morning – and Hainer explained to the Münchner Merkur and the tz also why the date was deliberately set for November 12th at 11 a.m. It is the first time that the AGM has had an appointment on a morning.

FC Bayern breaks the million-dollar barrier: the magical threshold for record sales has been exceeded

Bayern will then also present numbers that they have never seen in their long history. Loud Kicker A record will be achieved for the 2022/23 financial year. Sales are therefore beyond the 800 million euro mark for the first time. The German leader has thus exceeded a magical limit – so far the top value was 750.4 million euros from the 2018/19 season. Then the corona pandemic followed and the numbers fell. In 2021/22, the Munich team earned 665.7 million euros.

The 100 million euro transfer of striker Harry Kane will not yet appear in the figures as it will be allocated to the current financial year. Through the winning streak in the Champions League alone, the Munich team has almost made up for their record fee.

Bayern President Hainer: “Economically we are more than impressive”

“Economically, we are more than impressive; our members can look forward to the balance sheets. And we once again lived up to our social responsibility with many initiatives. We are looking forward to sharing all of this with our members at the AGM,” said Hainer Münchner Merkur and the tz aside from that.

“We are counting on many members coming to the annual general meeting to, among other things, vote on the new statutes. The whole process is democracy in action, and it is important that as many members as possible make use of their right to vote, because in an association with over 300,000 members, the largest possible group should be involved in setting the course,” Hainer continued.

Is everything great at FC Bayern? Early cup exit as a flaw

“FC Bayern is once again in a brilliant position in autumn 2023: our footballers have not yet lost a game in the Bundesliga and have won everything again in the Champions League. Our women’s team has taken first place, our basketball players are developing further with our new coach Pablo Laso,” explained Hainer.

The only shadow for the footballers, on whom the focus is of course: Another early failure in the DFB Cup. Coach Thomas Tuchel had to take a lot of criticism for this – but shot back in the convincing win in the classic against Dortmund. (akl/dpa)
