From the source

FC Bayern has announced a real surprise for the winter break. Instead of preparing exclusively at Säbener Straße for the second half of the season, the German record champions will travel to Africa in early January.

There, they’ll face a notable opponent in a friendly match: Ajax Amsterdam. However, the match will not take place in a typical stadium; rather, it is part of a special event in Kenya.

As the Munich club officially announced, FCB will face the Dutch record champions on January 5, 2027, in the Kenyan capital of Nairobi. The friendly match will be played as part of the opening ceremony for the new national stadium.
