Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting has extended his expiring contract with Bayern München by two years until 2023.


"We are happy that Maxim will stay with us for another two years," said Bayern board member for sport Hasan Salihamidzic.

"He is a very important player for us, performing strongly last season and scoring many goals. Maxim can be used in several positions, has very good technique, a lot of experience and is a goal threat.

"Aside from his sporting quality, Maxim is also important for our team as a person. He will help us achieve our goals in the next two years."



Choupo Moting, who joined Bayern on a free transfer from Paris Saint-Germain last summer, commented:


"I am proud to be here. FC Bayern is a very special club, the number one club in Germany and also one of the best clubs in the world. My first year here was great - on the pitch, but also off the pitch, we had a lot of fun together. I want to continue to have success with the team, I'd like to reach the DFB Cup final in Berlin and ideally win the Champions League."

"I'm looking forward to getting to know Munich even better, to becoming even more at home here, because Munich is a beautiful city."

The 32-year-old forward scored nine goals in 32 games last season.
