Christoph Freund, FC Bayern sporting director: “Lovro Zvonarek, Noel Aseko Nkili and Adam Aznou are young players with a lot of potential. The fact we can once again give three youth players professional contracts says a lot for our work at the FC Bayern Campus. It is our philosophy to have the greatest possible permeability to the first team because it is an important component of FC Bayern to develop young players for the absolute top level. We will continue to closely support the three of them on their next step. They have everything they need to succeed.”

Jochen Sauer, director of youth development: “We are delighted that these three boys, who could all still play in the U19s, have signed their first professional contract with FC Bayern. Lovro has already made his first mark in senior football with his first Bundesliga goal. Noel and Adam are regulars with our second team and have repeatedly shown their great footballing potential in their respective positions. We have confidence in all three of them to make their mark with our senior team in the long term.”
