Loan star impresses: Will he leave Bayern for good this summer? | OneFootball

Loan player Arijon Ibrahimovic is currently delivering strong performances at 1. FC Heidenheim – and might possibly leave FC Bayern permanently. Talks between the clubs are expected soon.

The 19-year-old offensive player moved on loan from the German record champions to the Ostalb in the summer of 2025 to gain regular playing experience in the Bundesliga. Ibrahimovic has immediately made his mark there: He has been in the starting lineup in all nine competitive matches so far and has already contributed an assist.

According to information from Sky, Heidenheim is extremely satisfied with the development of the talent. The club would therefore like to bind Ibrahimovic to them long-term and is planning talks with the FC Bayern officials. However, according to the report, a purchase option was not included in the loan agreement – a permanent transfer would therefore have to be negotiated individually.

Ibrahimovic's Departure from FC Bayern after the Season?

Ibrahimovic is still under contract with FC Bayern until 2027. In Munich, the offensive player is still considered talented, but the competition in the offensive area is very high. It was already decided in the summer that a loan would be the right step for his development.

Now, the next talents are already emerging at FC Bayern. For example, Lennart Karl is currently shining with his performances in Bayern's offense, the Munich team even rejected many players in the last transfer period to guarantee Karl playing time.

It is questionable where there might still be room for Ibrahimovic in the Bayern team. However, the native of Nuremberg is making excellent use of his opportunity in Heidenheim so far. He has established himself as a permanent part of the first eleven and impresses with creativity, dynamism, and courage in one-on-one situations.

Whether Bayern will give in to Heidenheim's courting remains open. What is clear is that the Bundesliga newcomer wants to keep the youngster – and will apparently seek contact with the bosses on Säbener Straße in the coming weeks.
