Because: “Otherwise there are quite good players in the stands week after week. Players who have also delivered in the past when they were needed,” continued the 61-year-old.

“If Konrad Laimer also moves to Munich, then there will be an oversupply on offense and in central midfield,” believes Matthäus and looks ahead: “I can well imagine two or three players leaving the club, and that too the balance, competition and energy of training is positively tense but not overly uncomfortable.”
