Leon Goretzka sees himself as a “branded child”
Leon Goretzka has countered the ongoing discussions about his fitness level. “I’ve now missed a game since the fourth match day. When you’re such a branded child, this discussion just gets big very quickly,” he told reporters after FC Bayern’s 4-2 win at VfL Wolfsburg on Sunday. “At the end of the day I’m very satisfied with my playing times.”
Since moving from FC Schalke 04 to FC Bayern in 2018, Goretzka has already missed 63 competitive games due to injury. He had to sit out earlier this season due to knee surgery. He missed the home game against Eintracht Frankfurt with a thigh problem and was back in the starting XI in Wolfsburg.
At the end of the game he even wore the captain’s armband. As is well known, Manuel Neuer is injured, his deputies have either been replaced (Thomas Müller, Kingsley Coman) or sent off (Joshua Kimmich). “It’s a nice fringe phenomenon to have such a bandage on your arm for FC Bayern. I have to be honest: it was fun,” said Goretzka. “I try to take responsibility on the pitch, even without a bandage.”
FC Bayern is apparently planning a marketing trip to Australia
FC Bayern Munich is apparently planning a marketing trip to Australia after the season – unless the team qualifies for the Champions League final on June 10 in Istanbul. That reports the sports picture. A return trip is more than 30,000 kilometers.
The Bundesliga season ends on May 27th, the final of the DFB Cup takes place on June 3rd, and there is still an international match date in mid-June. In preparation for the new season, FC Bayern is apparently planning a trip to Asia, including a visit to the Bangkok office.
Because of FC Bayern: Kuntz needs a new goalkeeping coach
After the move from TSG Hoffenheim to Bayern Munich, the Turkish national coach Stefan Kuntz has to look for a new goalkeeping coach. “You have to say thank you to TSG Hoffenheim, because the club has always done it very unbureaucratically. But after moving to Bayern, that’s no longer possible,” said Kuntz Editorial Network Germany.
Computer succeeds Toni Tapalovic in Munich. “He prepared the goalkeepers well for the games and does very detailed individual analyses. The Turkish Football Association is grateful. Because Michael showed that we brought the best with us. On the other hand, we’re also a bit sad that we’re losing him.” said Kuntz.
