Maximilian Beier, born on the 17th October 2002 in Germany, now aged 22 years old, principally serves as a striker for Borussia Dortmund. Measuring approximately 6ft (1.83m) tall with a weight of 11st 4lb (72kg), Beier proudly adorns the number 14 jersey for his team. He has also had the privilege of representing his home country, Germany, at a national level.
Beier's current market value is around £30.00m, according to Transfermarkt. His contract with Borussia Dortmund, carrying a tenure of 4 years and 9 months, is set to expire on 30th June 2029.
In July 2018, Beier embarked on a path further up the footballing ladder, transferring from Energie Cottbus of the 3. Liga in Germany to 1899 Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga of the same country. Across the seasons of 2019 - 2020 and 2020 - 2021 at Hoffenheim, Beier made six and three first team appearances in league matches correspondingly. The season 2023 - 2024 at Hoffenheim however, saw Beier compile 33 first team appearances while netting 16 goals in total.
With his talent not going unnoticed, Beier transferred from Hoffenheim to Hannover 96 (2. Bundesliga in Germany) on a loan spell in August 2021. His stint at Hannover 96 was marked by 30 first team appearances with three goals to his name in the first season (2021 - 2022) and 33 first team appearances, scoring seven goals during his second season (2022 - 2023).
Upon the culmination of his loan in June 2023, Beier returned to Hoffenheim where he started, seizing one more chance to impress for the German side. His second stint saw a facetious improvement in Beier's game, again making three first team appearances with 16 goals scored during the 2023 - 2024 season.
In August 2024, in tune with Beier's growing profile and impressive performances, he was transferred from Hoffenheim to another Bundesliga outfit, Borussia Dortmund, for a hefty sum around £24m. In the current season (2024 - 2025), Beier has made five first team appearances for Dortmund.
On an international front, Beier participated in Euro 2024 for Germany with one appearance as a substitute, followed by two appearances as a substitute in the Nations League 2024 - 2025 for Germany. He also made an appearance as a substitute in the Champions League 2024 - 2025 for Borussia Dortmund.
