FC Bayern, news and rumours: FCB threatens millions of poker with Choupo-Moting

Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting’s new contract could be expensive for Bayern. This Tuesday evening we face Robin Gosens and Inter Milan in the Champions League. The FCB News.

Here you will find more news about the German record champions.

FC Bayern, News: Robin Gosens wants to impress Hansi Flick

As far as the table is concerned, FC Bayern’s Champions League duel on Tuesday evening (9 p.m.) against Inter Milan is irrelevant: FCB is the group winner, Inter Milan is also in the round of 16 regardless of the result.

The game is still extremely important for the players – especially for those who are still hoping for a World Cup ticket. “Participation is in danger for me,” said Robin Gosens of Inter Milan at the press conference before the game on Monday. He wanted to recommend himself to national coach Hansi Flick.

The competition is fierce, the 28-year-old knows that. “Players who play well at club are also at the World Cup.” The left-back is still hoping to take part in Qatar: “I played well for the national team. All I can do now is train well and play well. I hope the coach sees that.”

Two “gods” and a kick: The Bayern legends from A to Z

1/29

Thorsten Fink celebrates his 55th birthday on October 29th. A good opportunity to take a look at the Bayern legends from A to Z.

2/29

“Legend” is a flexible term, and sometimes an overused one. But if there is one club in Germany that has produced a particularly large number of legends, it is FC Bayern Munich.

3/29

We have set one condition: at least one competitive game for the pros. In some places the air was getting thin, but in others…whoo! With just two or three letters, Bayern could muster a world eleven – or even two. See for yourself!

4/29

KLAUS AUGENTHALER: Seven times German champion, three cup winners, twice in the final of the European Cup of Champions – only David Alaba could pose a threat to him with the double triple. But Auge has the advantage of loyalty: 21 years as a player at FCB!

5/29

FRANZ BECKENBAUER: The Kaiser’s career is incomparable. Especially since he stood out as a fine spirit in a country full of “workers” and was ahead of his time. Because of his modern style of play, he was the perfect libero – one that never existed again.

6/29

KINGSLEY COMAN: The Frenchman may not be on the same level as the greatest legends, but he is a man of important goals. For example in the 2020 Champions League final, when he scored the golden goal against ex-club PSG to make it 1-0.

7/29

BERND DÜRNBERGER: He won numerous titles with FC Bayern between 1972 and 1985. He was pure consistency – and the only one from the “golden seventies” who was still there in the 1982 European Cup final. Only one international match he never made.

8/29

STEFAN EFFENBERG: With the Champions League victory in 2001, the tiger crowned a great career. His impulsive nature on and off the field remains unforgotten by many fans. Effe came primarily through his unique energy, “Friends of the Sun”.

9/29

THORSTEN FINK: As a four-time champion and Champions League winner in 2001, the 55-year-old is just ahead of Hansi Flick, who is remembered by Bayern fans primarily as a coach, but not as a player.

10/29

MARIO GÓMEZ: 11,342 competitive minutes, 113 goals, 26 assists – that’s a scorer point every 81.5 minutes. Can we just briefly capture how underrated Gomez was and is? But if Goretzka continues to tense his biceps, it will be tight for him.

11/29

ULI HOENESS: The maker of modern FC Bayern Munich. Loved, hated, rarely ignored – even as a player, an exceptional footballer who suffered bad luck with injuries, which he often provoked himself.

12/29

VALÉRIEN ISMAËL: 46 times more, sometimes less exciting competitive games are enough for the Frenchman for this spot. Because the competition consists of only two players: Werner Ipta and Norbert Ivangean. Arijon Ibrahimovic hasn’t played any competitive matches yet.

13/29

JENS JEREMIES: “Do you see the center line? If you get over it, do it ouch,” he is said to have said to Patrick Vieira from Arsenal FC. But Jeremies is not unrivaled at FCB. Even “football god” Carsten Jancker would have deserved this place.

14/29

OLIVER KAHN: With him, on the other hand, there are no discussions at all. When the titan was annoyed in the stands about the late equalizer against Dortmund, nostalgic emotions also came up among Bayern fans. Emotions that no one else triggers.

15/29

PHILIPP LAHM: Lahm consistently performed at a world-class level and controlled the game in almost every position. One of the best full-backs football has ever seen. Even Pep raved about him. Also unforgotten his clean trademark sliding tackle.

16/29

GERD MÜLLER: Beckenbauer personally described him as the “most important player in the history of FC Bayern”. Then players like Sepp Maier, Lothar Matthäus and Thomas Müller have to give way. You will understand – and treat the bomber.

17/29

MANUEL NEUER: He took goalkeeping to a new level. Numerous goalkeepers around the world are guided by his playing style. As a revolutionary and double triple winner, Neuer is unrivaled at this point in the alphabet.

18/29

RAINER OHLHAUSER: Without him, the golden seventies might not have existed in this form. Between 1961 and 1970 he scored 223 times and prepared 24 goals in 355 games. Among other things, he scored Bayern’s first Bundesliga goal.

19/29

JEAN-MARIE PFAFF: FC Bayern’s eighties were turbulent, spectacular and extremely interesting – even if the lack of a European Cup title unfairly diminishes them. The same goes for Pfaff, who was a sensational goalkeeper.

20/29

Well, there we have the first letter that has no player. After all, with Roque Santa Cruz or Xherdan Shaqiri you could name two Champions League winners who are very popular in Munich and have the “Q” in their names.

21/29

ARJEN ROBBEN: Mr. Wembley has captured the hearts of fans step by step with incredible performances and his heroic story. Down-to-earth and highly personable off the pitch too. Sorry, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Bulle Roth and Franck Ribéry.

22/29

BASTIAN SCHWEINSTEIGER: Speaking of heroic stories … “One of us” is not just a phrase for him. The “football god” is Munich through and through and has always been very close to the fan scene. Been through many lows, but always got up.

23/29

THIAGO: A magician on the ball who did things that weren’t known in Munich. And yet he was repeatedly criticized and his importance underestimated. Carried FC Bayern through complicated times and led them to the 2020 Champions League victory.

24/29

SVEN ULREICH: He is one of four players with the initial “U” who ever played for FC Bayern. His lead in experience over Dayot Upamecano is currently securing his place in the sun. Can the Frenchman overtake him soon?

25/29

MARK VAN BOMMEL: Captain of the team that gradually worked its way back to the top of Europe at the end of the 2000s. But shares the spot with hobby attacker Daniel van Buyten, who added the triple in 2013 when van Bommel was long gone.

26/29

ROLAND WOHLFARTH: We’re back to the spectacular eighties that many underestimate. Wohlfarth is another reason for the splendor of this period. He scored 155 times in 332 games and provided 37 assists. An almost forgotten top striker.

27/29

A player with “X”, that’s almost nothing. But if we let Xabi Alonso count, then the letter is very prominent. If you want even more Bayern legend, you could turn a blind eye to Bixente Lizarazu.

28/29

Deniz Yilmaz was in the squad a few times, but didn’t complete a minute. That allows us to cheat further and that’s how Franck Ribéry gets his place on the list.

29/29

ZÉ ROBERTO: Bayern fans are still amazed at the fitness level of the Brazilian and loved him when he was active because he knew how to combine German fighting spirit with Brazilian elegance. He was always reliable.

FC Bayern, rumor: Is there a million-dollar poker game with Choupo-Moting?

Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting is currently in top form and has developed from a backup to a regular at FC Bayern. The 33-year-old striker’s contract, which expires next summer, is therefore likely to be extended.

A report by sky according to Bayern, however, would have to offer the Cameroonian a significant salary increase. After all, Choupo-Moting is said to be one of the low earners at the German record champions.

There are loud concrete talks about a new working paper sky but not given yet. Choupo-Moting only wants to start negotiations after the World Cup, where he is expected to be in Cameroon’s squad.

FC Bayern, News: Sven Ulreich is hoping for a contract extension

Bayern Munich’s substitute goalkeeper Sven Ulreich is hoping for an extension of his expiring contract with the record champions. What does that mean for the alleged new successor Alexander Nübel?

For several weeks, Ulreich (34) has represented the injured national goalkeeper Manuel Neuer in the Bayern box. All six games were won, and Ulreich received praise from the decision-makers: “Sven is doing great, I think he played really well,” emphasized Oliver Kahn after the 6-2 win against Mainz 05, although Ulreich did it with a bad pass had initiated a second goal.

The Munich substitute keeper’s contract expires next summer. Although it was still too early for negotiations, Ulreich explained sky – “but I can very well imagine staying here.”
