Philipp von Taube (born 4 May 2009) is a German professional footballer who plays as a forward and attacking midfielder for Regionalliga Bayern club Bayern Munich II.[2][3]

Club career

A youth product of 1860 Munich, he later joined the youth academy of Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich in 2019.[1][4][5]

In early 2026, von Taube was called-up to train with the Bayern Munich first team by head coach Vincent Kompany, after having scored 17 goals in 21 matches with the Bayern Munich's under-17s.[6][7][8]

He received his first call-up and made his professional debut with Bayern Munich II during the 2025–26 season on 30 April 2026, in a 4–0 away loss Regionalliga Bayern match against FV Illertissen, substituting Bajung Darboe at the second half.[9][10] Eight days later, von Taube received his second call-up and made his first start with Bayern Munich II during a 1–1 home draw Regionalliga Bayern match against VfB Eichstätt, on 8 May.[11][12]

In May 2026, he extended his contract with Bayern Munich, along with seven other FC Bayern Campus players, including Leopold Schmid.[13]

Personal life

Born in Stuttgart, Germany,[1] he is a descendant of the ancient Baltic-German noble Taube family lineage, being related to the late countess Hedvig Taube, among others.[6][7][14]
