Bayern Put Laimer Extension Talks on Hold Over Reported Pay Gap

Overview

• Talks are on hold with Bayern and Konrad Laimer described as far apart on salary expectations by Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg.
• Laimer’s current package is reported at €9 million base plus €2.25 million in bonuses, totaling €11.25 million.
• Reports say his representatives are seeking well over €15 million, with uncertainty over whether that figure refers to base salary or total compensation.
• Club-focused analysis points to performance-linked bonuses as a potential compromise rather than a large fixed pay rise.
• Fresh reports link Liverpool and Atlético Madrid with interest, while Laimer is described as very happy at Bayern and he is managing a minor ankle issue after playing through it against Dortmund.
