Bayern Munich have agreed to play a friendly match against Ajax in Kenya next January, according to a report from SB Nation. The German champions are said to have accepted the invitation because the financial offer was too lucrative to decline.
The match is scheduled for January, though an exact date and venue have not been confirmed. Both clubs have a history of meeting in European competition, most recently in the 2018-19 UEFA Champions League group stage.
The friendly forms part of a growing trend of top European teams traveling to Africa for preseason or mid-season exhibitions, driven by commercial opportunities and fan engagement.
