In light of last year’s momentous events, FC Bayern are looking ahead to the upcoming international break with concern – but also with a touch of historical grandeur.
FC Bayern has been based on Säbener Straße for 77 years. As the club has grown, so too have its facilities, transforming from simple huts into a hotel reminiscent of those in Dubai. Is the next major refurbishment on the horizon?
Julian Nagelsmann has moved to overhaul his backroom staff as Germany ramp up their preparations for the 2026 World Cup. The German Football Association (DFB) confirmed on Tuesday that they have secured a deal to bring in a high-profile specialist to ensure the squad is in peak physical condition for the tournament.
FC Bayern Munich is apparently planning a refurbishment of its training ground on Säbener Straße. This is likely to see the removal of a legacy left by former manager Carlo Ancelotti.
The annual NXGN lists are back for 2026, as GOAL ranks the world's top teenage talents in men's and women's football, crowning winners that will follow in the footsteps of the likes of Jude Bellingham, Rodrygo, Gianluigi Donnarumma and Vicky Lopez in being recognised as the best young footballers on the planet.
Manchester City have been informed as to who the “best replacement” for Pep Guardiola will be, while Vincent Kompany is being backed to return to the Etihad Stadium at some point. Former Blues captain Richard Dunne has told GOAL what the future could look like in a coaching capacity, with two highly-decorated managers set to see their respective contracts expire in 2027.
Bayern Munich will reportedly consider selling left-back Alphonso Davies this summer due to his consistent injury problems. The Canada international has often been linked with a transfer away from Bavaria but signed a new contract last year which runs until 2030. However, the 25-year-old has struggled to stay fit in recent years and the German giants are weighing up whether to cash in, with Manchester United thought to be interested.
Harry Kane, Michael Olise and the rest are the talk of the town given Bayern Munich’s successful run. Stefan Effenberg, however, specifically highlights other players. News and rumours about FCB.
Lennart Karl has an exciting few weeks ahead of him: the 18-year-old is set to make his debut for the German national team and is due to play for FC Bayern at his dream club.
FC Bayern are chasing every scoring record, but have recently looked vulnerable at the back. Against Union Berlin, the Munich side kept a clean sheet for the first time in a long while.
A player on loan from FC Bayern is hoping for a second chance in Munich. An opposing manager is impressed by the German record champions’ style of play. News and rumours about FCB.
Harry Kane has been told he will only break Robert Lewandowski's Bundesliga scoring record at Bayern Munich if Vincent Kompany's side lose to Real Madrid in the Champions League. Kane has 31 goals in just 26 league games this season, and must hit 42 if he is to surpass Lewandowski's record.
FC Bayern beat Union Berlin 4–0 and have extended their lead at the top of the Bundesliga table to twelve points, at least for the time being. Individual player ratings for the FCB squad.
Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya has revealed that he could have joined Bayern Munich instead of the Gunners, before developing into a likely Premier League title winner in north London. The Spain international has become one of the best stoppers in Europe under Mikel Arteta's tutelage but it nearly didn't come to pass at all, given the interest from the Bundesliga giants.
Newcastle United are intensifying their search for a new number nine this summer, with Chelsea strikers Nicolas Jackson and Liam Delap emerging as primary targets. The Magpies have struggled to fill the void left by Alexander Isak, who moved to Liverpool last September for £125 million ($166m), as neither Yoane Wissa nor Nick Woltemade have fully convinced as a leading option.
The player's agent and Uli Hoeneß will never be friends in this lifetime. Once again, the honorary president of FC Bayern Munich has levelled harsh criticism.
After the bitter disappointments of last year, Kompany is taking a more relaxed view of the international break this time around. Despite the Bayern stars having played numerous matches ahead of the clash with Real Madrid, confidence is growing.
