Gladbach to blame themselves? Güner’s agent disagrees with Rouven Schröder | OneFootball

Armando Güner and Borussia Mönchengladbach seem unable to find common ground anymore. The player and the club have fallen out over the player's trip to Istanbul. The latest statements from Güner's agent do not suggest a resolution anytime soon.

Mehmet Eser spoke to 'Sky' on Sunday about the origin of the disputes. For alleged negotiations with Galatasaray, the Foal's jewel traveled to the Turkish capital on January 9th.

Did he call in sick for this reason? Eser now contradicted this: "That is not entirely true. Armando was already given a sick note by a Borussia Mönchengladbach doctor on Monday [four days before the trip] due to a cold, until the relevant Friday. At the time of the trip, he was completely healthy again; otherwise, we would not have gone there."

However, even beyond the sick note, the Gladbach management was reportedly irritated at the time. "The last two days have surprised us because we haven't received anything. We only learn about it from the press," criticized sports director Rouven Schröder at the time.

Here too, Eser presented a different perspective. He claimed to have "tried multiple times to inform the Gladbach officials about the trip without receiving a callback," he asserted to the subscription channel.

Is Gladbach to blame for the 18-year-old youngster likely leaving the club? According to Eser, this was the BMG's intention anyway, which was communicated to him in January. Therefore, he felt compelled to counter Schröder's communication: "I cannot stand by and watch false claims about a young player being spread." Will the Gladbach officials let this stand?
