“The togetherness, which has always distinguished Bavaria, has been trampled underfoot,” the former Bayern star started his criticism and added: “I think that’s a shame.

Matthäus: I think it’s a shame that no Bayern manager takes a position

During his active time in Munich, an escalation like last Thursday would have been difficult to imagine. “As a former Bayern player, that doesn’t suit me. We have always been one unit, we celebrated successes together, but we also put up with defeats. You didn’t see this commonality on Thursday.”

Instead, Bayern once again sent their coach Julian Nagelsmann into battle with the media.

“I think it’s a shame that no one responsible for FC Bayern takes a position on this,” said Matthäus, who also criticized this fact. “I’ve always seen strength at Bayern. There was a Karl-Heinz Rummenigge or a Uli Hoeneß. They faced the media and fans.”
