"Initially just another player invited to Bayern Munich's World Squad side project (which started as a glorified PR stunt), Cardozo stole the show during the program. He was simultaneously the youngest and the most impressive player, impressing with his creative play, technical quality and close control."
"Maycon Cardozo is on the verge of extending his contract at FC Bayern. Negotiations are at the final stages. The 17-year old was at Säbener Straße with his agent Delon Alves for negotiations with the club. Bayern wants to secure his future with a youth contract initially and a prospect of playing for the first team in the future."
"He has not let the lost time get to him, though. During the 2025/26 season so far, he starred for the U-19s and was promoted to the U-23s at the start of 2026. He even made his senior team debut in the friendly against RB Salzburg."
Maycon Cardozo emerged as an exceptional talent through Bayern Munich's World Squad initiative, becoming the youngest and most impressive participant. His creative play, technical quality, and close control earned him a contract until June 2027 in January 2025. Despite losing the first half of 2025 to injury, Cardozo progressed through the U-19s and U-23s, making his senior debut in a friendly against RB Salzburg. Head coach Roy Makaay and his evaluation team were immediately convinced of his abilities. Currently, Cardozo is in final negotiations to extend his contract beyond 2027, with Bayern offering a youth contract and prospects for future first-team opportunities.
