Market

Bayern Munich pay Bournemouth $56.3M for a proper upgrade

Bournemouth did not want to sell and the number is why they did. $56.3M for Evanilson, and the expectation that arrives with him is the kind no amount of settling-in period softens.

Squad

Evanilson gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Evanilson has just signed for Bayern Munich, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad

Tempers go at Bayern Munich

Harry Kane was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Dayot Upamecano falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Boardroom

Graduation day at Bayern Munich

5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Market

One of our own: Patrick Schuster joins the Bayern Munich first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Patrick Schuster is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

Bayern Munich promote Ralph Roth from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Ralph Roth has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Market

Heinrich Krämer steps up from the Bayern Munich academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Heinrich Krämer has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Boardroom

Bayern Munich are making the ground bigger

Work is signed off on a capacity of 104529. It is the sort of decision a club is judged on twenty years later, by people who were not there when it was taken.
