FC Bayern to integrate Arijon Ibrahimović into squad

FC Bayern are set to integrate forward Arijon Ibrahimović into head coach Vincent Kompany's first team for the new season. The 20-year-old spent the past season on loan at 1. FC Heidenheim. Ibrahimović, who has been with FC Bayern since 2018, is under contract until 30 June 2028. He had gained experience at Italian first-division sides Frosinone Calcio and Lazio before his spell at Heidenheim. He will wear the number 22 shirt.

FC Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund: “Arijon joined FC Bayern when he was twelve years old. He has progressed step by step through our Campus and targeted loan spells. In the last year at Heidenheim in particular, he has learned a lot personally to be ready for FC Bayern. His development is a great example of the opportunities we offer our talents. Now it’s no longer only about learning – it’s about making his mark here at FC Bayern.”
