Bayern Munich news

With 20 goals across the four games, and late drama at the end of both ties, it's fair to say the 2025-26 Women's Champions League semi-finals delivered. Out of them emerged Lyon, the eight-time winners, and Barcelona, the three-time champions, to set up a truly mouth-watering final in Oslo on May 23, in which there will be so many fascinating storylines.

Barcelona will face Lyon in the Women's Champions League final after beating Bayern Munich 4-2 on Sunday, for a 5-3 win on aggregate in the semi-finals. The German champions gave the three-time winners a tough match last week but the Catalans asserted their authority at Camp Nou, as goals from Salma Paralluelo, Ewa Pajor and an Alexia Putellas brace set up a fourth UWCL final between Barca and Lyon.

Bayern Munich goalkeeper Ena Mahmutovic caught the eye with her unusual playing kit during the Champions League semi-final second leg against FC Barcelona.

Luis Enrique has hailed Paris Saint-Germain's breathless 5-4 victory over Bayern Munich as "the best match I've ever been involved in as a coach". The Parc des Princes hosted a historic Champions League semi-final first leg that saw nine goals shared between the European heavyweights, leaving the Spanish tactician both exhausted and exhilarated.

The rematch with FC Barcelona arrives at an opportune moment for FC Bayern winger Linda Dallmann.

Bayern Munich Women have been crowned Frauen-Bundesliga champions for the fourth consecutive season following a dramatic 3-2 victory over Union Berlin. The triumph marks a fitting domestic farewell for England international Georgia Stanway, who is set to depart the German giants this summer after playing a pivotal role in their recent era of dominance.

Almost every footballer's career has a sliding doors moment, and Georgia Stanway's came in the summer of 2022. It's remarkable to think now, given her role in the England team and her status as one of the best midfielders in the game, but as that year's European Championship approached, Stanway was not in Sarina Wiegman’s starting XI.

Newcastle are reportedly prepared to discuss Anthony Gordon’s departure if Bayern Munich meet their eye-watering £75 million ($101m) valuation. The England international is a top target for the German giants and the Magpies could be open to a sale as they seek to fund a squad overhaul in the summer.
