Watch: Thomas Müller's funniest moments
When in Orlando
Disneyland came to Bayern at training yesterday, with Goofy and Mickey being introduced to Thomas Müller and Manuel Neuer. It should come as no surprise that Goofy and Müller immediately hit it off. Neuer looked a lot les sure about Mickey...
Master and apprentice
Musiala is looking in great shape as he prepares to make his injury comeback this weekend. The Bayern playmaker - for so long seen as Müller's long-term successor at the club - has been out of action since early April with a muscular issue. He still ended the 2024/25 campaign with 18 goals and eight assists across 40 competitive games, though. In terms of goals scored, the 22-year-old has never been so prolific.

Training at Disney World
The Bayern players returned to team training on 5 June after a brief holiday break to prepare for the Club World Cup. Just five days later on 10 June, Vincent Kompany's team will fly to the United States. There, the Bavarians will be based at their camp at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, which is part of Disney World in Orlando, Florida.
Squad selection surprises
Bayern have recalled two loan players early - Adam Aznou (from Real Valladolid) and Maurice Krattenmacher (from Ulm) - in order to take them to the Club World Cup. However, it remains uncertain whether the two new summer signings Jonathan Tah (from Leverkusen) and Tom Bischof (from Hoffenheim) will be registered in time to participate with their new club.
Registration deadlines
FIFA have created an additional transfer window for the Club World Cup in which clubs can register players. The squad lists for the tournament must be submitted by 10 June. By then, it will be clear which players will be travelling to the USA. If no agreement can be reached regarding a early transfers before then, participating clubs will also be able to replace and add players during a restricted in-competition period from 27 June to 3 July within a set limit and according to specific limitations, according to FIFA's rulings.
A Klassiker on the cards?
With both Bayern and Dortmund playing in the Club World Cup, there is potential for another instalment of Der Klassiker. However, the earliest the two Bundesliga teams can meet is in the semi-finals, and that's only if one finishes first and the other second in their respective groups. If both finish first or both finish second, the would be unable to meet one another before the final.
Going the distance
After the group stage, the top two teams from each group will progress to the knockout phase, which will commence with the round of 16. The round of 16 will take place from 28 June to 1 July, followed by the quarter-finals on 4 and 5 July and the semi-finals on 8 and 9 July. The grand final at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey will kick off on 13 July at 9pm CET.
