Last summer, FC Bayern had to become active late in the transfer market, but with a view to next season, sporting director Max Eberl wants to fulfill Uli Hoeneß‘ wish.
FC Bayern’s plans for the future are becoming clearer and clearer. The record champions appear to be a decisive step closer to the summer of 2026 in particular – in line with the wishes of supervisory board member Uli Hoeneß.
According to Sport BILD, Munich’s basic squad plans for the summer of 2026 are already largely in place. According to the report, the aim is to approach the transfer market early and in a structured manner instead of having to react late to developments. This is precisely the approach Hoeneß has recently formulated several times as his wish list: create clarity early, act early, strike early.
Eberl implements Hoeneß’s instructions
Head of Sport Max Eberl is apparently working in exactly this direction. Internally, the decisive course has already been set so that potential transfers can be prepared in the long term.
In the summer transfer period before the current season, several of Munich’s plans came to nothing. Desired player Florian Wirtz opted for a move to Liverpool FC, no agreement could be reached with VfB Stuttgart over a transfer fee for Nick Woltemade and in the end the German international ended up at Newcastle United.
After numerous names were discussed to replace Leroy Sané on the left wing, Bayern finally signed Luis Diaz – which in retrospect turned out to be a real top transfer. Things got hectic again in the final days of the transfer period, until Nicholas Jackson was finally loaned out from Chelsea FC on deadline day.
This summer, Eberl now apparently wants to fulfill Uli Hoeneß‘ wish and bag the transfers for the coming season early.
