FC Bayern: Neuer contradicts Rummenigge – “It annoys us all that Süle is leaving”

No “panic attacks” on contracts

Manuel Neuer (35) regrets the departure of defender Niklas Süle (26) at Bayern Munich at the end of the season. “We are all annoyed that Niklas is leaving. We will miss him,” said the DFB goalkeeper after the 3-2 win against RB Leipzig on Saturday on the TV channel “Sky” and contradicted the statement by ex-boss Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, who said that Süle never really changed prevailed: “I think that one can say today that he asserted himself here and showed great performances.” Süle had not been able to agree with Munich on an extension of his expiring contract.

“We work together every day. Of course, if you play together for so long, it’s a shame if a cornerstone like that falls away,” emphasized Neuer. As a goalkeeper, he has a very special relationship with his defenders. “I’m not going to lose him completely because he’s a national player.”

Coach Julian Nagelsmann understands both Süle and the club. Nagelsmann said he could understand certain reasons. And since some clubs raise “a few euros” more, this would sometimes result in players changing, whose contracts are expiring. Neuer’s statements should be understood as an appreciation for Süle.

CEO Oliver Kahn had previously said that financial reasons were also decisive. “It’s always about the money, of course. We have very specific boundaries, very specific limits that we don’t want to go beyond. We not only have responsibility for the sporting area, but also for the economic one,” said Kahn. President Herbert Hainer added to the TV station “Bild”: “Niklas Süle has been with us for five years, he is a very good player. We made him a good offer, he changed his mind.”
