Bayern Munich is overwhelmed. This winter, the residents of the Allianz Arena have a lot of files to manage. A few days ago, they finally completed the one concerning Alphonso Davies. After colossal work by management, the Canadian finally agreed to extend his lease in Bavaria while Real Madrid was ready to welcome him freely during the summer of 2025. This Friday, Bild also reveals the details of Operation Davies. Thus, the versatile left side will sign a 5-year lease with a salary of €15 million as well as a €5 million bonus on his performance and a signing bonus of €20 million. After him, the Germans hope to complete the extension of Jamal Musiala.

Under contract until 2026, the 21-year-old is not against extending. But he wants to include a release clause of €175 million. What Bayern Munich, which wants to have control over the sales of its players, refuses. But there is still time to get along. There will obviously be fewer problems with Thomas Müller. Free this summer, the German, who gets along perfectly with his management, should extend at least for one more season. Other elements of Vincent Kompany's group are in a less comfortable situation. This is the case of Leroy Sané. He also wants to continue playing at Bayern Munich. According to Bildhe did his best to obtain a new contract while the Munich managers were quite critical of him.

The uncertain future of several executives

They want more regularity from him and will wait until the last moment to decide. For his part, Sané is willing to accept a 2-year lease with a reduction in salary. A departure cannot be ruled out between now and the summer transfer window. Like him, Serge Gnabry (under contract until 2026) and Kingsley Coman (under contract until 2027), recently linked to Arsenal, are potential candidates for departure. Bild explains that the Bavarians are ready to listen to offers for them, since the club wants to inject new blood on the wings. Concerning Mathys Tel, the German media indicates that he could review his plans and agree to a change of scenery since he has had little playing time again. But a departure is unlikely. Finally, there is the Joshua Kimmich case.

The German international will be at the end of his contract next June. Bild explains that Kimmich had contact with Real Madrid. A destination that interests the player who knows that the Merengues are competitive on all fronts. If Marca indicates that the Madrilenians are not in the game, Kimmich seriously considers the option Madrid assures Bild. The player, who had discussions with Max Eberl and other Munich leaders, is therefore thinking about his future. And this, even if the Bavarian locker room is campaigning for his contract extension. Potentially leaving, Sané, Gnabry, Coman and Kimmich, four players who are important voices in the group, will have to sort out their future.
