Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer to run for re-election

Yahoo5 days ago
According to Abendzeitung's Maximilian Koch, Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer will run for re-election in November and is expected to remain in charge of the reigning Bundesliga champions. Hainer succeeded Uli Hoeneβ after the latter retired from presidential duties in November 2019 and was re-elected in October 2022, receiving 78% of the votes.
Bayern are predominantly owned by their members, who hold 75% of shares; the remaining 25% is evenly split with Allianz, Audi and Adidas holding an 8.3% stake.
As CEO of Adidas, Hainer oversaw the company's 2002 acquisition of a 10% stake in Bayern, making the sportswear giant the club's first official shareholder. This investment laid the financial foundation for the construction of the Allianz Arena.
A Bayern fan from a young age, Hainer has overseen five Meisterschale triumphs as well as a solitary DFB Pokal win and the behind-closed-doors 2020 Champions League victory.

Arne Slot hints at possible Luis Diaz exit from Liverpool

Liverpool's coach, Arne Slot, confirmed that Luis Díaz's absence in the friendly against AC Milan in Hong Kong was due to his possible departure from the club. The Colombian winger did not play in the "Reds'" defeat against the Italians, fueling rumors about his future. "It was a technical decision related to his current situation in the market," explained Slot, hinting that offers for the player are being evaluated. Luis Díaz has recently been linked with teams such as Bayern and FC Barcelona, which ultimately opted for Marcus Rashford. His exclusion reinforces the idea that he could be living his last days at Anfield to head to the Bundesliga. The club remains tight-lipped, but his departure seems increasingly imminent.

Luis Diaz left out of Milan game due to discussions over Liverpool future, says Arne Slot

Arne Slot confirmed that Luis Diaz was left out of Liverpool's 4-2 friendly defeat to Milan in Hong Kong due to ongoing discussions over his future. The Colombian attacker is being pursued by Bayern Munich, who had an opening offer of €67.5million (£58.6m; $78.8m) rejected earlier this month. The Bundesliga outfit remain determined to secure his service as talks between the clubs continue. Advertisement 'In Lucho's situation it was (linked to his future), yeah,' Slot said. 'There are a lot of rumours around it lately and I cannot go into that. He is training really well with us but we have decided, for now, not to play him yet. 'Yes (I've spoken to Diaz about it) but I am used to talking to most of my players on a regular basis. Like I said, Lucho is training really well but we've decided that he is best not playing at the moment in the games and I cannot comment much more than that.' Darwin Nunez was another high profile absentee against Milan. The Uruguayan has also been heavily linked with a move away from Anfield this summer. However, Slot insisted that his absence was fitness related. 'In Darwin's situation, he has trained really well and played a few good games for us already this pre-season. He was injured so we didn't want to take the risk,' he added. 'It was also the same with Wata (Endo) — trained with us all week but we didn't want to take a risk with him either. It is part of pre-season, the boys need to get towards match fitness and that is a thin balance, a thin line sometimes. In this situation we thought it was smarter for Darwin and Wata to sit it out today but I assume they will be with us when we are in Japan for the next game.' Asked if Diaz wants to leave Liverpool, Slot said: 'I am not the person to ask.' ()
