Max Eberl knows his Bayern Munich future is in the hands of the supervisory board

"It's the decision of the supervisory board. I have nothing to do with it. I can only do my job and do what I think will make FC Bayern successful in the coming months and years. At the same time we have to keep an eye on the fixed deposit account. If everything goes well, I'd be happy when the supervisory board contacts me,"

"He was tasked with spearheading contract renewal efforts for Alphonso Davies, Jamal Musiala and Joshua Kimmich while also having to help determine who Thomas Tuchel's managerial successor would be. At the same time, the directive from the club was also; figure out how to save some money - all the while being in a position at a club like FC Bayern where you're always under the proverbial microscope."

Max Eberl's contract at Bayern Munich expires in June 2027 and the club must decide whether to offer an extension. Internal signals point toward the supervisory board approving an extension unless a catastrophic event occurs, as Eberl's tenure as board member for sport is considered an overall success. Eberl has remained noncommittal in public, stating that the decision lies with the supervisory board and that he focuses on performing his role while watching the club's finances. His early months beginning March 2024 involved urgent tasks: renewing contracts for Alphonso Davies, Jamal Musiala and Joshua Kimmich, helping choose Thomas Tuchel's successor, and cutting costs while under intense scrutiny.
