Bayern Munich appear set to fill from within the role formerly held by head of scouting Nils Schmadtke. According to GOAL, the position oversaw scouting for both the first team and the youth teams.
Kresse expected to step in
According to kicker, Christoph Kresse, who has served as chief scout since the spring, is expected to succeed Schmadtke at least temporarily. The outlet also says Bayern Munich want to overhaul their scouting operation.
Schmadtke set to leave
Bayern Munich announced at the beginning of November that they had parted ways with Nils Schmadtke by mutual agreement following talks based on trust. GOAL says Schmadtke's contract runs until 31 January 2027, after which he will leave the club.
Scouting structure under review
According to kicker, Bayern Munich could once again bring scouting together at the campus on Säbener Straße, making a conventional department head unnecessary.
Vivell reportedly no longer under consideration
According to kicker, Christopher Vivell is no longer under consideration in Munich. Vivell is a close confidant of Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund and previously worked with him at RB Salzburg.
