Despite being a defender, Laimer enjoyed a positive season at the attacking end of the pitch, contributing three goals and 13 assists across all competitions.
He told Bayern’s website: “For me, it’s something very special to play in the FC Bayern jersey. I’ve often emphasised how happy I am in Munich and how much fun it is to play football in this team.
“I’ve felt that from day one here. I can help the team in many positions and want to continue giving everything for FC Bayern every single second. With this team, anything is possible and I’m already looking forward to the season starting again.”
