Bayern can well imagine extending Serge Gnabry’s contract in principle. Max Eberl is a big fan of the German international. Gnabry is also open to staying at Bayern. He currently earns up to €18m gross per year including bonuses. For a contract extension to happen, there has to be a pay cut.

With a deep paycut and only a 1-2 year extension, I’d be fine.
But certainly not for the encounter he currently earns!
Performance based contract. 2 years max
Only give him a year – Gnabry really performs when he needs to extend his contract.
Joking aside even though I think he is doing great right now I really wish to establish some younger and cheaper players in the squad. Wont take long until he is injured and he isnt as fast as he used to be so not a great backup on the wings.
if he keeps his current form up for most of the season, I’d be happy to see an offer for 10+5m for 2 years.
After the last-minute contract talks with Sané and offer, I sense a pattern here.
Let me guess: It will be 12-13mio fixed with 5 mio of possible add-ons?
(Judging by the offer made to Sané which stayed at 15mio total but had more of the sum tied to performance based factors)
Under 10 or let him go , some new young blood would be more exiting
For me, the only acceptable amount is at least a 50% cut and a 2-year contract. 9-10m is still a lot for him imo, but considering his contributions in the past, it would be a fair salary that still respects him and his legacy.
The moment he signs his extension, his performance will drop off hard.
The thing is our squad is fucking threadbare so we need to keep him unless we sign quite a few more decent players
50% wage cut and I’m in
We shouldn’t speak about numbers, we are not managing a football club ourselves so we probably don’t have a clue which amount is okay and which not. But yeah, of course he can’t be extended with 18m, not even if he keeps his current lvl
Paycut for sure. But also a 1-2 year extension. Gnabry is playing his best football since 2020 this season. Interestingly enough, Vlahovic is playing great football for Juve this season. Most Juve fans insisted all his time prior to this season that he’s a poor striker. Salah last season was unreal, and this season he looks dreadful. The common thread here is Salah was out of contract last season, and got renewed. Vlahovic is also out of contract this season. Sane’s best season for us stats wise was also last season.
Not uncommon for performances to rise prior to a contract running out. It needs to be made clear to Gnabry that his overall performances at Bayern don’t warrant his current salary. And if he wants to continue with us, he needs to show that this uptick in performance isn’t just so he can get a new contract. Performance base contract with a paycut is a must if he wishes to stay!
