FC Bayern extend contract with Jan-Christian Dreesen until 2027

FC Bayern is committed to continuity in its top management and is extending the successful collaboration with Jan-Christian Dreesen, 57, as CEO by two further years until 30 June 2027. The supervisory board of FC Bayern München AG unanimously passed a motion to this effect at its regular meeting today.

“Jan-Christian Dreesen took over as CEO in a difficult time and led FC Bayern München AG back into calmer waters in a short space of time. We want to continue on this path together. We are certain that he is the right person to tackle the upcoming challenges together with his fellow board members Michael Diederich and Max Eberl and to achieve FC Bayern's ambitious goals,” stated Herbert Hainer, chairman of the supervisory board.

Jan-Christian Dreesen: “I would like to thank the supervisory board for the trust they have placed in me and look forward to continuing to work with them. FC Bayern has always been a matter close to my heart. Together with my colleagues on the executive board and all employees, I would like to make my contribution to ensuring that FC Bayern remains what it is, which is one of the absolute top clubs in Europe in terms of sport and business, with a great Bavarian tradition and the highest national and international standards.”

Dreesen joined FC Bayern München AG as chief financial officer in 2013 after a highly successful career in banking. Just one year later, he was promoted to deputy chairman of the executive board. Since May 2023, the business graduate has been the club’s CEO.
