    Club supremo stresses financial stability

    Brushing off speculation over a move to the Santiago Bernabeu, Hainer stressed that Die Roten's financial stability means they do not have to sell key players. Speaking on Bild TV, the president offered a clear message: "FC Bayern is a club that doesn't need to sell. We make our decisions from a position of strength. Michael Olise still has a contract with us until 2029.

    "I hope and wish that he will extend it at some point. Regardless of whether it's Real Madrid or whoever else makes a move, we know how to defend ourselves well. FC Bayern has a lot to offer."

  • German champions eye contract extension

    Bayern are reportedly keen to agree a new deal, although sporting director Max Eberl admitted that formal talks have not yet started. Despite rumours suggesting a transfer could top €200 million, Hainer believes the player's happiness in Munich will help secure his long-term future.

    Highlighting his rapid progress, the club chief added: "He feels very comfortable here in Munich. When he first came to us, only insiders knew him. Now the whole football world knows him."
