Overview

• In his Sky column, Lothar Matthäus called most of Uli Hoeneß’s remarks embarrassing and said the comments stirred unrest at FC Bayern.
• Hoeneß said on SPORT1’s Doppelpass that Bayern’s obligation to buy Nicolas Jackson would trigger only if he starts 40 matches, adding that this number will not be reached.
• The Bayern patron derided Matthäus during the broadcast and labeled sporting director Max Eberl sensitive, while Eberl declined to comment when asked by BILD.
• Hoeneß said he and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge will step back once the right people are in place, with SPORT1 reporting that observers see Markus Krösche as a potential candidate in internal discussions.
• Hoeneß also took aim at ex-Bayern defender Markus Babbel on live TV, saying Babbel has no influence in the football scene.
