Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has extended his contract with the club through to 2019.
The 60-year-old's current deal was due to expire at the end of this year but he agreed to continue in the role following negotiations with his fellow board members at the club.
After the deal was announced, Rummenigge thanked club president Karl Hopfner "for the trust and the serious and constructive work together", while Hopfner said "it is a good day for Bayern Munich".
