Summary[edit]
Pre-season[edit]
On 1 March, Bayern Munich announced the appointment of German executive Max Eberl as a board member for sport, after Austrian executive Christoph Freund was appointed as the sporting director a season before.[1][2] Together the pair started to build a new direction and philosophy for the club, they extended the contracts of both Mathys Tel and Alexander Nübel, tying them with Bayern Munich until 2029.[3][4] After the 2023–24 season concluded, as well as the end of Thomas Tuchel tenure as head coach, the club announced the signing of new head coach, former professional footballer and Belgium national Vincent Kompany on 29 May 2024, with Eberl and Freund both being the strongest forces behind the signing of Kompany for a three-year contract until 2027, the pair approached him while he was still under contract with Premier League club Burnley after facing relegation to the EFL Championship and Bayern Munich paid a compensation fee that was dealt with the English club. For the press conference Eberl and Freund gave some insights about their approach and goals for the club within their philosophy along with the new head coach, asserting that the club is approaching a concrete attacking style of play with and without the ball, a bigger and closer focus for the reserve team Bayern Munich II with aim to make the bridge for young talents to integrate with the senior team more consistent, the transition and development of assembling a senior team with top-class players as well as to keep on building a stronger youth sector to develop more football talents.[5]
On 14 November 2023, Bayern Munich announced the signing of Australian young talent Nestory Irankunda from A-League Men club Adelaide United. He will join the club in July 2024.[6]
After joining the club on loan from Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur in January 2024, Eric Dier will make a permanent move to Bayern Munich due to a clause in his contract.[7]
Following a similar trajectory to Dier, Bryan Zaragoza signed for the club in February 2024, initially on a six-months loan from La Liga club Granada.[8]
Both Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Bouna Sarr did not renew their contracts with the club for the 2024–25 season, opting to become free agents.[9]

On 13 June 2024, Bayern Munich signed defender and Japan national Hiroki Itō from fellow Bundesliga club VfB Stuttgart, on a contract until 2028,[10] after they had triggered his release clause of an estimated €30,000,000.[11]
