"Lennart Karl's contract will automatically extend on his birthday (until 2029) on 22 February. Bayern won't sell this player. They don't want to sell this player. He's very much a player for the future. He's German, and he comes from the Bayern campus. They also intend to sign him up on a longer contract, before the World Cup, until 2031."
"For the record, every interested club in the world would have to think about an offer well over €100m [£87m]. Real Madrid have to bring this offer in, and only then will Bayern Munich discuss it. They obviously brought in Luis Diaz this summer for €70m [£60.9m]; he's a very good player, but he's not young anymore, so resale value is out of the question."
"Karl, who is in the midst of a tough stretch as he attempts to navigate the workload of his first season in the Bundesliga, looks to be a building block for the club and even though some fans become annoyed at his recent comments regarding Real Madrid, it still looks as if he has a bright future ahead of him in Bavaria. Per one advanced statistical site, Bayern Munich winger Luis Díaz has been the best player in the world this season:"
Lennart Karl's contract automatically extends to 2029 on 22 February, and Bayern plans to offer a longer deal through 2031 before the World Cup. Bayern consider Karl a homegrown German prospect from the club campus and a firm part of Vincent Kompany's plans. Club officials and agents are in talks to increase his earnings. Bayern are unwilling to sell Karl now and would only consider offers well above €100m. The club contrasts Karl's resale value and nationality with recent signings like Luis Díaz. Karl is navigating a challenging first Bundesliga season but remains a projected building block.
