Briefly

Bayern Munich suffered another disappointing elimination in the Champions League quarterfinals, losing to Paris St. Germain. This defeat continues a streak of losses against top European clubs. Jamal Musiala sustained a serious injury during the match, which will sideline him for several months and significantly impact Bayern's style of play, according to head coach Vincent Kompany. Bayern's recent transfer window has been challenging, further highlighted by the club's unsuccessful attempt to sign Florian Wirtz, who chose to join Liverpool instead. Despite the setbacks, Bayern gained a financial boost of approximately 53 million from their trip to America.
