Overview
- A report from Sky Germany journalist Florian Plettenberg says Bayern and Konrad Laimer have agreed a contract extension running to 2029 and that a signing announcement is expected soon, but the claim currently rests on that single media report.
- The reported package would raise Laimer’s total pay to more than €10 million gross per season including bonuses, according to the same report.
- Laimer himself told Servus TV News that “it’s not official yet” and said he is focused on the World Cup while describing talks as on a good path.
- Sporting context under new head coach Vincent Kompany helped drive the talks because Laimer, a central midfielder by trade, has been used and praised as an effective right-back.
- The next step is formal confirmation from Bayern; if the club signs off the deal it will alter the team’s wage structure and secure a versatile defender for Kompany’s 2026/27 plans.
