Karl-Heinz Rummenigge will remain at the helm of German champions Bayern Munich alongside Uli Hoeness until at least 2021 after the former striker was given a two-year extension as chairman.
"Our most important task in the years to come will be to continue to develop Bayern so that it remains one of the best clubs in Europe," Rummenigge said on Friday after thanking the board and club president Hoeness for their support.
Hoeness himself was on Tuesday given a four-year extension to his term as head of Bayern's supervisory board.
He said Rummenigge had "brilliantly proved his qualities over the past 16 years" and added: "We are sure that he is exactly the right man to take Bayern along the path to success in the years to come."
