Overview
- Uli Hoeneß urged restraint and the board tasked Max Eberl with adding only a loan signing through June 2026, prompting a late-window search to cover a thinned attack after exits and Jamal Musiala’s injury.
- Bayern are weighing temporary moves for Nicolas Jackson, Jadon Sancho and Marco Asensio, with reports of internal hesitation on Sancho and the need for a PSG extension to enable any Asensio loan.
- VfB Stuttgart shut down Nick Woltemade talks despite multiple Bayern bids reportedly rising to €65 million, and new reporting says an initial buy-and-loan-back plan was scrapped once Musiala was sidelined.
- Mario Basler castigated Bayern’s transfer approach, citing leaks and a shallow bench, as Eberl responded with gallows humor about only being able to arrange loans.
- Thomas Müller criticized Bayern’s communication around his exit and Uli Hoeneß’s public comments, while confirming he has debuted for Vancouver; Vancouver also signed Sebastian Schonlau, Eintracht confirmed Michael Zetterer with an immediate debut vs Werder, and Paxten Aaronson joined Colorado Rapids.
