Bayern Munich clinch 35th Bundesliga title
April 19, 2026
Bayern Munich secured yet another Bundesliga title after beating Stuttgart 4-2 at home on Sunday.
Top scorer Harry Kane scored his 32nd goal of the season after coming on as a second-half substitute as the Bavarians won their 35th German league trophy.
"To finish the league off in the way we have with the goals we scored... credit to the lads... we still have a lot to play for... but all the hard work, this makes it all worth it," said Kane.
Bayern Munich cruise to title
The win moved the Bavarian giants an unassailable 15 points clear of second-placed Borussia Dortmund with four games to spare.
Germany captain Joshua Kimmich, who won his 10th league title with Bayern, called the victory "very special."
"The way we did it, we were very consistent...and we haven't achieved that form so often. I hope 10 more titles come on top of this," he said.
The "Meisterschale" ("champions' shield" in English) trophy is expected to be handed out after Bayern's final game of the season at home to Cologne on May 16.
Another dominant campaign
Bayern have only suffered one defeat in the league this season, at home to fellow Bavarians Augsburg in January, and a league-low of four ties so far.
They have also scored 109 goals so far this season — another record.
Bayern already clinched the Super Cup in August, also against Stuttgart, and will take on Bayer Leverkusen in the German Cup semi-final on Wednesday.
In Europe, Vincent Kompany's team has reached the Champions League semi-finals, where they meet holders Paris Saint-Germain in the first leg on April 28.
"It is April 19 and we are in every competition. We have had lots of success with every player in the squad. We go to Leverkusen knowing anything can happen, but with real belief," Kompany told DAZN.
Kompany, whose only previous job as head coach was at Premier League side Burnley, took over in 2024.
