>FC Bayern has agreed contract extensions with youth players Lennart Karl (17) and Wisdom Mike (16). The two U17 internationals have been wearing Bayern colours since 2022. Karl made his debut for Vincent Kompany’s team in the 10-0 victory over Auckland City at the Club World Cup.
>**Board member for sport Max Eberl**: “For all our hunger for success, we want to continue to promote our talents at the FC Bayern Campus. We want to continuously bring Lennart Karl and Wisdom Mike closer to the pro team, we want them to give it their all every day with our support. Besides Jamal Musiala, Aleks Pavlović and Josip Stanišić, we want more home-grown players in our first team. At the FC Bayern Campus, both have learned early on what this club means – we’re looking forward to their next steps.”
>**Sporting director Christoph Freund**: “Lennart Karl and Wisdom Mike have been at the FC Bayern Campus for years, they’ve always been defining players of their teams. Lennart is bold, dangerous in front of goal, technically gifted with close ball control in one-on-one situations and very versatile in attack. Wisdom has good acceleration, he’s explosive and dynamic with a drive towards goal and has good finishing skills – a winger we at FC Bayern like to see. Both are still very young and have enormous potential. The future might belong to them.”
