FC Bayern Munich is the most successful club in Germany. In our news ticker you will find all the important news about the record champions.
The most important things at a glance
Bayern professional is probably facing retirement in the summer
Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has been part of the Bayern family since October 2020. However, that could soon change as the striker’s working paper expires in the summer. According to Sky, Munich’s current tendency is that they do not want to extend the offensive player’s contract.
However, a final decision is still pending. If the 34-year-old leaves FC Bayern, Saudi Arabia and Qatar are an option, according to the TV station. So far, Choupo-Moting has played 116 games and scored 38 goals.
German record champions are traveling to South Korea in the summer
FC Bayern is traveling to Asia again in the summer. The people of Munich will be visiting South Korea for the first time. The club did not announce the travel dates on Wednesday. This year’s Audi Summer Tour is the club’s ninth, with two digital variants being added during the corona pandemic. This summer we are going to Asia for the fourth time; FC Bayern have been to the USA five times so far.
At the German record champions’ premiere in the South Korean capital Seoul, a game will take place in the World Cup Stadium as part of the “Coupang Play Series 2024”. The key details such as date and opponent will be announced shortly.
Bayern duo back in team training
Kingsley Coman and Noussair Mazraoui have taken the next steps towards their comeback at FC Bayern Munich. At the start of the week, like Serge Gnabry and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, they put in an extra shift. The Bayern quartet used the session for what the club said on Monday was an “intensive individual session with lots of sprints and high speeds”. Coman and Mazraoui withstood the stress test and returned to team training on Tuesday.
After last Saturday’s 5-2 win in Darmstadt, head coach Thomas Tuchel initially gave his team two days off. During the week there will be three more training sessions for the professionals who remained in Munich during the national team break. Bayern will play their next competitive game on March 30th against Borussia Dortmund at the Allianz Arena.
Offensive player Coman suffered a torn medial ligament in his left knee in the game against FC Augsburg at the end of January and has been out since then. Right-back Mazraoui had been sidelined since mid-February due to a torn muscle. Gnabry recently made his comeback. Like Choupo-Moting, he was also used against Darmstadt.
Sorge a Former Bayern-Star João Cancelo
FC Barcelona won 3-0 against Atlético Madrid on Sunday evening. João Cancelo was not there. The Portuguese full-back had only joined the missing players shortly before the game. The reason for his absence was not an injury.
As Javier Miguel, reporter for the Spanish newspaper “As”, and transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano report, among others, the former Bayern star (1/2023-6/2023) is going through a difficult time. “The team dedicates the victory to Cancelo. He didn’t come because he has a serious personal problem,” said Miguel. Romano also spoke of a “difficult time at home”.
What exactly it is about is not known. Cancelo at least spoke up in the evening with a short Instagram story. The 29-year-old shared Barcelona’s contribution to the victory and posted a blue and a red heart, the club’s colors.
Bayern shock in victory: Kane and Pavlovic injured
In the 5-2 away win against Darmstadt 98, Bayern’s Aleksandar Pavlović and Harry Kane had to be replaced with injuries. The soon-to-be German international collided with Oscar Vilhelmsson in the 53rd minute and had to be treated on the pitch.
