Bayern Extend Zähringer Contract and Loan Her to Stuttgart

FC Bayern München extended Luzie Zähringer's contract to 2029 and sent the 18-year-old defender on loan to VfB Stuttgart for the 2024‑25 season.

The move places her at the newly promoted Bundesliga side.

Zähringer secured the Fritz‑Walter‑Medaille in gold earlier this year.

She also featured in her first Bundesliga matches for Bayern before the loan.

Stuttgart, returning to the top flight after promotion, will integrate Zähringer into their defensive line.

The club is based in Zähringer's hometown, offering a familiar environment.

Bayern's loan aims to give the defender regular first‑team minutes.

The club will retain her rights under the 2029 contract while monitoring her development.

Zähringer aims to solidify her place in professional football during the season with Stuttgart.

Bayern expects the experience to accelerate her growth for future contributions.
