“I don’t want him” – Guardiola probably vetoed a mega transfer at FC Bayern. Fernandinho now claims that Guardiola had a transfer master plan in mind for Kevin De Bruyne that was made long in advance.
Ex-Bayern official Michael Reschke, technical director at Bayern during the period mentioned, emphasized to Sport Bild: “That is complete nonsense. Pep Guardiola was not involved in this decision at all” Of course, FC Bayern is planning important transfers again for the coming summer and has stopped an upcoming renovation for this purpose.
