Max Eberl had to laugh out loud and apologetically raised both hands when T-Online asked him on Friday morning on the explosive statements by Fernando Carro this week about Causa Florian Wirtz. “I didn’t say anything about Florian or about advertising,” said Eberl.
Bayer Leverkusen’s managing director Fernando Carro saw himself at the beginning of the week on the sidelines of the Laureus World Sports Awards in Madrid to emphasize that there is currently “no offer” for Wirtz from FC Bayern. “It’s really a show, that doesn’t matter to me. They tell so much, actually it doesn’t belong,” said Carro addressed the offensive and public advertising of the Munich team around Wirtz, who is still under contract in Leverkusen until 2027.
“We made the statements as a club in the form of Uli (Hoeneß; editor’s note) and Kalle (Karl-Heinz Rummenigge; note of the editor) that they both find the player very, very well,” said Eberl and emphasized: “But if they personally ask me: I always think the ball is extremely flat, we are still in the middle of the season and struggle with Leverkusen To the championship. “
To put disturbing fire in the decisive season phase at the competitor was “accused of” accused “in the past, known Eberl. But: “We don’t at all, we want to have sporting success, then we will do our squad planning in the future.”
Of course, Fernando has the right to say that when it bothers him, “said Eberl:” We live in a free world, you can express it. But personally it didn’t affect me because I was very reserved in the cause. ” In the past, Eberl and Carro had publicly verbally attacked each other in the past as part of the burst transfer of national player Jonathan Tah, but has now settled the twist.
Afterwards, all those responsible for the record champion-also Eberl-immediately saw themselves to publicly comment on the Wirtz personnel and at least grant their club patron this big dream.
Rummenigge, who, like Hoeneß, is now sitting on the powerful Supervisory Board, went a little further. “Uli said Wirtz was his dream – and that was still politely put. Everyone at FC Bayern agrees that he is exactly the player we want to get,” said Rummenigge in early March of the “evening newspaper”.
