“A lot of potential”: FCB sports director Freund raves after the U19s reached the quarter-finals. FC Bayern awaits the offspring of Olympiacos Piraeus in the quarters.
“They definitely need a little more time,” says Freund, dampening the expectations that, after Aleksandar Pavlovic, other homegrown players will quickly gain a foothold in the newly formed star ensemble. In a possible semi-final, FC Bayern would face the winner of the game between FC Nantes and FC Copenhagen.
