Overview

• Max Eberl rejected talk of a resignation at a pre-match press conference and said his focus remains on football and executing the club’s plan.
• President Herbert Hainer said transfers and personnel moves are made jointly and approved by the supervisory board, pushing back on rumors of internal fractures.
• CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen told Sky that Uli Hoeneß speaks out of care for Bayern, asked “Wo ist das ein Problem?” and called for more Lässigkeit in the Beckenbauer spirit.
• Olaf Thon criticized Hoeneß’s sharp tone toward Eberl, praised recent recruitment steps and argued Premier League money skewed several failed Bayern pursuits.
• The current debate follows Hoeneß labeling Eberl “ziemlich empfindlich” and airing transfer timing advice on TV, which fueled media speculation about unrest.
