"Javier Fernández unfortunately wasn't able to play much in 2025 due to a long injury but is now 100 percent fit and ready for senior football. He's a very good player, a physically strong midfielder who can lead from the front in any team. He's also showed in the Youth League that he can make a statement, even when his team goes behind. He's someone who takes things in his own hands."
"I feel very good in Munich and am excited to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world in the coming years. Now I want to use my chance at Nürnberg to gain match practice in Bundesliga 2 and develop further."
"Fernández moved to the FC Bayern Campus from Atlético Madrid's academy in January 2023, playing for the U17s and U19s before stepping up to the reserves in January 2024. However, injuries meant he missed most of last year and some of the current season. The Spanish midfielder made his return in December and has now made 13 appearances for the second team, scoring two goals and providing two assists. He has also featured in three friendlies for the first team, including January's 5-0 win at Red Bull Salzburg."
FC Bayern extended Javier Fernández's contract through 30 June 2028 and arranged a loan to Nürnberg for the rest of the season. Christoph Freund noted Fernández missed much of 2025 with a long injury but is fully fit, calling him a physically strong midfielder who leads from the front and takes responsibility. Fernández said he feels good in Munich and wants to use the Nürnberg loan to gain match practice in 2. Bundesliga and continue his development. Fernández joined the Bayern Campus from Atlético Madrid in January 2023, advanced to the reserves in 2024, returned from injury in December, and has 13 reserve appearances with two goals and two assists, plus three first-team friendlies.
