On July 30, 2026 Bayern Munich came up against amateur local club Rottach‑Egern in a closed‑door pre‑season friendly.
The German side slammed 15 goals and held a nil.
Nathaniel Brown earned his senior debut, and Aleksandar Pavlović came back after a extended injury spell.
The game gave preliminary assessment drills for players who will travel to the World Cup.
Pavlović said he feels prepared to attack again following season.
Bayern used the game to experiment with systems and gauge fitness before the new campaign begins.
