FC Bayern want to extend Konrad Laimer’s contract. This has been under consideration for some time, but the poker has been difficult of late. One of Bayern’s bosses is now taking over!
Much has been written in recent weeks and months about Konrad Laimer’s contractual situation. The Austrian himself is relaxed, but reports have been circulating that his demands are too high in some cases. Too high from Bayern’s point of view, of course
Uli Hoeneß intervened and said that the Austrian was valued, but that he naturally had a different value for Bayern than, for example, Harry Kane
These were statements that caused irritation, but there was also a brief discussion between the two parties. And Laimer has no grudges against FCB anyway
Laimer deal draws closer
According to Sport1, there are now new signals regarding the deal, with honorary president Uli Hoeneß also playing a role
The „ice age“ that briefly prevailed between the two camps is long gone. According to the report, this is also due to the fact that Hoeneß has now actively intervened in the poker game and sought an exchange of views with the Austrian’s consultancy agency. There, the appreciation is said to have been confirmed once again, but also the fact that there are red lines in poker that Bayern does not want to cross
If Laimer finally decides to stay, it will reportedly be with a moderate increase in his own salary. According to Sport1, the high sums that have been circulating are now off the table
Meanwhile, Sport1 does not give an exact time frame for when an extension could be signed. At the moment, it looks as if this will only be the case after the World Cup. As the record champions are Laimer’s number one contact anyway, this should not be a problem.
