Jan-Christian Dreesen spoke about the current situation at the club before FC Bayern’s match against Hamburger SV. In doing so, the FCB CEO especially defended Max Eberl.
In recent weeks, Bayern’s sporting director Max Eberl has repeatedly faced criticism. Most recently, comments from Uli Hoeneß attracted attention, as he described Eberl as “too sensitive.”
Speaking to Sky, Jan-Christian Dreesen addressed Max Eberl’s situation. He explained: “We are all here at FC Bayern with our hearts – that unites us. When you’re in the press every day, it does something to you, that’s completely normal. That’s why I thought his words were very good.”
At the press conference before the Bundesliga clash with Hamburger SV, Eberl firmly denied any intention to leave: “I want to do a good job here. I started 17, 18 months ago, it wasn’t an easy situation. What I do, I do with passion, I burn for it. My heart is here.”
The sporting director also highlighted the sporting progress since he took office: “Last summer, we found an outstanding coach, both as a person and as a coach. Then it was about changing the squad. The contract extensions were essential. Now in the summer, we changed the squad again. Developing talents should never be just a hype. We have started to cut costs and generate revenue. That’s what we stand for.”
Eberl also emphasized that Munich had achieved a lot within the given framework: “We have completed a transfer period in which we implemented many things under the requirements we had. We made the squad smaller. We achieved a transfer surplus, we found very good quality and have a squad with which we are very happy. We have created space for talents.”
