FC Bayern Munich contract extensions and transfers

Overview

In late July 2026, FC Bayern Munich continued its squad‑building strategy by first securing key defensive personnel. On 21 July, the club announced a new contract for Austrian defender Konrad Laimer until June 2029 and extended French centre‑back Dayot Upamecano through 2030, with an exit clause set for the summer of 2027 that could trigger a €65 million move. A week later, Bayern shifted focus to reinforcing its midfield and clarifying transfer rumors. On 27 July, the club moved toward a permanent signing of 18‑year‑old Senegalese midfielder Bara Ndiaye, targeting a contract through 2031 and a modest €3‑4 million fee. Simultaneously, Bayern’s CEO Jan‑Christian Dreesen dismissed speculation linking winger Michael Olise to Real Madrid, confirming Olise’s contract runs until 30 June 2029 with no release clause and no interest from the Spanish club. On 10 August, the club officially finalized the permanent signing of Bara Sapoko Ndiaye on a contract through 2031. As the club prepares for the 2026/27 Bundesliga season, its strategy regarding Michael Olise has evolved toward securing his long-term future. By late August, reports indicated the club is working to extend Olise’s contract through 2031. To ward off interest from clubs like Real Madrid, Bayern is considering a deal that could make the 24-year-old one of its highest‑paid players, potentially surpassing the salary levels of Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala, who reportedly earn approximately €2.1 million per month. By early September, the club’s approach to Olise’s contract has reportedly shifted to include a release clause, a departure from its traditional policy. This clause could be set between €180 million and €250 million to deter interest from clubs such as Real Madrid, Liverpool, and Manchester City. The proposed extension may also include a salary increase to approximately €25 million annually to match Harry Kane.
