The Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich have officially secured their leadership for the long term by extending the contracts of board member for sport Max Eberl and CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen until June 30, 2029.
Eberl, who joined the club in 2024, has been instrumental in the recent restructuring of the squad, including the appointment of head coach Vincent Kompany and the marquee signings of Luis Diaz and Michael Olise. As a former youth player for the club, Eberl expressed deep personal commitment to the Bayern project.
Bayern has been close to my heart ever since my time in the youth ranks. Like my fellow board members, I therefore want to continue on the path we have embarked on and, in the interests of the entire Bayern family, continue to do everything I can to achieve sporting success. Max Eberl
CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen echoed these sentiments, thanking the supervisory board for their confidence. He emphasized the collective goal of ensuring the club remains at the top of elite football, a standard the management team has strived to restore since the turn of 2024.
Securing the future of this executive duo provides vital off-field stability as the club navigates the demands of both domestic competitions and the European knockout stages. With their positions confirmed, the board can now focus entirely on long-term squad planning to maintain the positive momentum currently established under Kompany.
