Despite Harry Kane’s early-season concerns about Bayern Munich’s “smallest-ever squad,” Vincent Kompany remains unfazed. With Bayern on a record-breaking 16-game winning streak and key stars Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies and Hiroki Ito nearing returns, the coach insists depth is not an issue further proving that form, fitness and flexibility might outweigh numbers.

Bayern Munich are racing to extend Dayot Upamecano's contract, with sporting director Christoph Freund calling it the club's "main goal". The defender is in the final months of his deal, and reports claim Real Madrid have opened talks for a free transfer ahead of next season, which comes as no surprise to the German club's director.

Germany legend Oliver Kahn has criticised Bayern Munich for allowing defender Dayot Upamecano to enter the final year of his contract. The former Bayern goalkeeper believes that Upamecano now holds the upper hand and that the club may have to pay a high price to avoid losing him on a free transfer. Spanish giants Real Madrid and Premier League side Liverpool are both reportedly interested in signing the French defender.

Bayern Munich are preparing a formal offer to extend Konrad Laimer’s contract following his superb form under Vincent Kompany. The Austrian, hailed by Lothar Matthaus as a “perfect team player”, has become one of Bayern’s most trusted performers impressing with his versatility, intelligence, and tireless work rate across multiple positions.

Vincent Kompany admitted he “would have loved to have played” in the second-half as Bayern Munich battled to a 2-1 Champions League win over Paris Saint-Germain. The Bavarians extended their winning streak to 16 matches despite Luis Diaz’s red card, with the Belgian praising his side’s defensive resilience in one of their toughest tests of the season.
