Max Eberl Reflects on Leipzig Tenure Ahead of First Clash as Bayern Manager

Eberl expresses no bitterness over his time at RB Leipzig, emphasizing professional relationships and rivalry ahead of Bayern's Bundesliga match.

Max Eberl, now Bayern Munich's sporting director, faces his former club RB Leipzig for the first time since his departure.
Eberl stated he holds no anger or resentment toward Leipzig, framing their relationship as a professional rivalry.
RB Leipzig received a seven-figure compensation fee when Eberl's contract was terminated early, allowing him to join Bayern in March 2024.

Eberl maintains cordial relationships with key Leipzig figures, including coach Marco Rose, with whom he shares a longstanding professional and personal connection.
