Bayern Munich Announces Record Revenues As Hainer Secures Third Term

‎Bayern Munich announced a record annual turnover of €978.3 million (£862 million) for the 2024/25 season, marking a 2.8% increase from the previous year.

‎The club shared the news during its Annual General Meeting on Sunday. At the same event, Herbert Hainer was re-elected as Bayern’s president for a third three-year term.

‎The club generated a profit of €27.1 million, down from €43.1 million in 2023/24 and €35.7 million the season before.

‎”Despite tumultuous times and a transfer market which is reaching new dimensions, we have once again achieved record turnover and posted a solid profit,” said CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen.

‎”This demonstrates the exceptional strength and substance of our club. We are not volatile, Bayern is stable.”

‎The defending German champions also announced membership had reached 432,500, the highest in the club’s history and more than that of any other football team.

‎Hainer was re-elected unopposed, receiving overwhelming support from the club’s voting members.

‎Under Germany’s ‘50+1 rule’, football clubs must ensure their members hold a controlling stake in the organisation.

‎The regulation is designed to keep clubs under the control of their fans and prevent external investors from gaining majority influence.
