Google Scores Big in Football with Bayern Munich Partnership

Bayern Munich has partnered with Google to become the latest team in their expanding football stable. The partnership involves Google's Gemini AI becoming the club's consumer AI, while Google Pixel takes on official smartphone partner duties.

The deal begins with the new German season, which starts with next weekend's German Super Cup against Borussia Dortmund. Google Pixel will produce exclusive material for both Bayern's channels and Pixel platforms, including behind-the-scenes footage from training and the Allianz Arena.

Bayern board member Rouven Kasper said: 'This long-term partnership represents a fascinating intersection of football culture and technological innovation.'
