Bavaria’s striker Harry Kane and coach Vincent Kompany recently complained about the small squad of the Munich team. Now Uli Hoeneß has surprisingly said.
FC Bayern wanted to hire players like Florian Wirtz or Nick Woltemade for the coming season. However, the transfers did not come about. Once the player didn’t want to, the other time VfB Stuttgart pushed the bar. However, the man’s strength of the German record champion triggers discomfort. Harry Kane recently said: “It is probably one of the smallest squads I’ve ever played in.” Now Uli Hoeneß also commented. He probably does not want to commit another player.
The Honorary President of Bayern told the “Süddeutsche Zeitung” on Tuesday: “I would very much advocate filling the squad with a loan player who will be under contract by June 30, 2026.”
A sentence that surprises. After all, the Munich team was ready for Wirtz to take out a loan in order to be able to pay the high transfer fee of over 100 million euros. According to media reports, VfB Stuttgart wanted around 75 million euros for Woltemade. According to the “Bild”, Bayern remained just below with their offer, but had paid around 70 million euros for the possible transfer. For other transfers, however, the money should not be spent on Hoeneß now-even if Leroy Sané (Galatasaray Istanbul), Thomas Müller (Vancouver Whitecaps), Mathys Tel (Tottenham Hotspur) and Kingsley Coman (al-Nassr) there are numerous departures. Jamal Musiala is also injured for longer.
In view of this is a loan, what coach Vincent Kompany has in mind? Questionable. The coach last explained: “The quality is there, but we don’t have the width. Not yet.” According to information from the “Süddeutsche Zeitung”, the German record champion does not plan only in the coming summer with a squad break. Then it should be decided which player desired player to go to the squad and which professionals may have to leave the club on the Isar.
