Konrad Laimer has spoken out on his decision to sign a contract extension with Bayern Munich that keeps him at the club until 2029. Fresh from helping Austria reach the World Cup Round of 32, the versatile 29-year-old insisted he never entertained thoughts of leaving Bavaria despite protracted negotiations over his future.
Bayern Munich have secured the long-term future of one of their most versatile performers following the conclusion of the World Cup. Austrian international Konrad Laimer has officially confirmed that he has signed a contract extension to remain at the Allianz Arena.
Bayern Munich are reportedly on the verge of finalising a contract extension for Konrad Laimer. Honorary president Uli Hoeness has hinted that an agreement is practically complete. The Austria international, who boasts 136 club appearances, is focused on World Cup duty in Group J, but Bayern Munich are confident that only the final signature is missing to seal the deal.
A deal for Ismael Saibari is expected to be announced shortly. An agreement has reportedly already been reached with Nathaniel Brown. Moreover, FC Bayern are said to be in pole position for a third target player.
The protracted contract negotiations between Konrad Laimer and FC Bayern could soon come to an end – partly because club president Uli Hoeneß has become actively involved.
Most of the FC Bayern Munich squad had already left for the double-celebration when Konrad Laimer finally entered the mixed zone. Despite having just endured a gruelling ordeal, the Austrian midfielder was in high spirits.
Bayern Munich's attempts to secure the long-term future of Konrad Laimer have hit a significant stumbling block, with sporting director Max Eberl admitting that negotiations are currently at a standstill. The versatile Austrian international has become a key figure at the Allianz Arena, but a substantial difference in valuation between club and player has left the Bundesliga giants searching for a solution to keep their star man.
Konrad Laimer's contract extension at Bayern has been dragging on for quite some time now. Toni Kroos has a clear view on the matter and has made a recommendation.
TV pundit Michael Ballack lost his cool during the Champions League semi-final second leg between Bayern Munich and PSG. The outburst followed a highly questionable decision by the referee – and things only got worse. Vincent Kompany was also furious after two further incidents.
Manager Vincent Kompany surprisingly opted for Alphonso Davies at left-back against Paris Saint-Germain instead of Konrad Laimer. Although the full-back did concede a penalty, the move ultimately did not come back to haunt the coach.
