Gnabry ends transfer speculation by signing new deal with Bayern Munich until 2026

Serge Gnabry has signed a new contract with Bayern Munich until 2026, ending speculation that he could leave the club in this transfer window.

The Germany international had just one year left on his previous contract at the Allianz Arena, and reports suggest the club could consider moving him in that window if a deal is not agreed for a extension.

Links with Real Madrid, Chelsea and former club Arsenal were suspended on Saturday, however, as Bayern announced that Gnabry had signed a new contract.

On the same day the German giants confirmed they had reached an agreement to sell star striker Robert Lewandowski to Barcelona, ​​news of Gnabry's extension will give Bayern fans something to smile about.

Gnabry has made 171 appearances in all competitions for Bayern since joining from Werder Bremen in 2017, scoring 64 goals.

The 27-year-old winger won four Bundesliga titles, two DFB-Pokals and a Champions League during his time in Munich, and told the club's official website that he wants to win even more in the years to come.

"I thought a lot about what I wanted as a player in the years to come, and I came to the conclusion that I wanted to stay at FC Bayern, win everything here again and have experiences - in particular celebrating another Champions League title, but this time with our fans,” he said.

"It's special because I can play here with my friends at the highest level. It certainly wouldn't be the same at any other club.

"I want to experience more great moments here - and nowhere else. The thirst for great honors does not go away."

Gnabry has scored 14 league goals in 2021-22, with only Lewandowski (35) scoring more for Bayern, while Thomas Muller (84), Joshua Kimmich (80) and Leroy Sane (50) were the only ones his teammates to create more chances (48).
