Mario Götze is looking for a new club - surprisingly, FC Bayern seems to be a serious option.
Is there a mega comeback?
Mario Götze
* has still not found a new club.
There was already "lively contact"
with
Hansi Flick
*, as the
FC Bayern
*
coach
confirmed.
The coach would like to have him, the bosses probably not - is there even trouble at FCB?
Update from September 30, 3 p.m.:
FCB coach
Hansi Flick
urgently wants reinforcements for the 2020/21 season.
The
transfer window is
still open
until October 5th
and a name that is associated with FC Bayern could even be committed beyond this deadline.
Mario Götze
,
who has been without a club for almost three months,
is one of the candidates to strengthen the thin squad of FC Bayern.
According to
information from
"Sport Bild"
(September 30th edition)
,
Hansi Flick's
idea of
bringing
Mario Götze back was not heard in the FCB's executive suite.
Was that Flick's taste?
"We leave many options open," said sports director
Hasan Salahamidzic.
You are also in constant contact with the coaches and see what is possible.
Is the
Götze case
already history or is FC Bayern playing poker and ultimately signing Mario Götze after the transfer period has ended?
At least the 28-year-old would be a candidate who already knows the club and is available for a free transfer.
Meanwhile, the next exit at Bayern is probably fixed.
For a French left foot, the Munich strike a hefty fee.
Meanwhile, FCB showed interest in a midfield star from Spain who once cost 70 million.
Idol sensation?
FC Bayern has a hidden trump card when it comes to transfers
Update September 29, 12:45:
The
FC Bayern
urgently looking for reinforcements for the strenuous season * that awaits the champions.
The bankruptcy at TSG Hoffenheim should have been the last warning shot on Säbener Strasse.
The squad of Munich is far too thin and needs to
be nursed again
until the
transfer window
closes
next Monday.
Especially in
midfield
, improvements must be made, especially since
Javi Martinez
and
Michael Cuisance
are threatened
with
further departures.
The young Frenchman is considered an enfant terrible and does not want to sit on the bench for another season.
In Sinsheim, there was not even enough for Cuisance to be nominated for a squad, a day later the 21-year-old burned the
fuses
in a training duel with
Robert Lewandowski
. *
Coach
Hansi Flick
cannot be really satisfied
with another French
either.
In Kraichgau,
Corentin Tolisso
got
another probation chance and replaced
Leon Goretzka
in the starting line-up.
The world champion looked like a foreign body alongside Joshua Kimmich * and could not revive the Munich offensive game from the center.
Mario Götze could strengthen Bayern at any time
Will Bayern strike again on the transfer market and get a midfielder?
With
Mario Gotze
is a top player for this position in the market and even to have a free transfer.
From the team, be it coach or player, you only hear positive things about the ex-Dortmund.
Götze is in top shape and recently even completed a fitness test at the Sport University in Cologne, so he doesn't need any start-up time.
The 28-year-old also knows the club from his time in Munich between 2013 and 2016.
Since Götze is not a club, Bayern could even sign him after the transfer window has ended.
The bosses may want to
keep
this
option
open in order to be able to react at short notice.
Will Götze take part in this perfidious game?
The 2014 world champion actually wanted to have clarity about his personal situation by October 5 at the latest, but he may wait a little longer for Bayern.
So much is already clear: If the Reds don't sign any more players by next Monday - Götze might still be available.
Is there a sensational comeback ahead?
Mario Götze completed a fitness test
Update from September 27, 8:55 p.m.: Mario Götze
leaves no stone unturned in the search for a club.
The former
“Golden Boy”
, who is associated with his return to
FC Bayern
, has already changed advisors twice this year and is keeping fit with a professional coach.
Gotze's training program also includes kickboxing and yoga.
Now Götze is
laying
another
cornerstone
to finally find a place to stay at a new club.
The 28-year-old has been without a club for almost three months.
Probably also because potential employers are unsure about the fitness level of the 2014 World Cup final scorer.
Götze was now at the
sports university in Cologne
to complete a
fitness
test, as the
picture
reports.
The 90-minute test includes jumps, cycling on the ergometer and lactate test.
The concentration of lactic acid in the muscles is measured after exercise.
Götze checks his fitness every six months.
This time he doesn't just do it for himself personally, but also for his new club.
Update from September 26th, 7:05 pm:
FC Bayern and the
squad planning
for the current season are probably the only construction site of the current Champions League winner.
The
Mario Götze
personality
is therefore one of the most persistent rumors that the record champions are currently facing.
FC Bayern and Mario Götze: Flick comments on further squad planning
Head coach Hansi Flick commented on the general situation at the press conference before the game against TSG Hoffenheim about the planning until the closing of the transfer window in October: “
Of course I can't say anything about names
.
Hasan Salihamidžić and I have
agreed
that we will keep quiet
about this
.
We are in exchange.
He and his team do the work in the background and it's good for us if we
keep the ball flat
. ”So we can wait and see whether the 2014 World Cup final scorer will move to Säbener Strasse this summer.
Update from September 26, 8:31 a.m.:
Not only FC Bayern Munich, but also Hertha BSC is allegedly interested in a transfer from Mario Götze.
According to sports director Arne Friedrich, the world champion is definitely on the list of Berliners.
"He is of course a name that we have dealt with," said Hertha's sports director at DAZN before the game against Eintracht Frankfurt.
Frankfurt won with goals from Andre Silva, Bas Dost and Sebastian Rode 3-1 in the Olympic Stadium.
Martin Hinteregger scored the consolation goal via an own goal.
“We spend a lot of time wondering who is this missing piece of the puzzle.
As I said, there are a lot of names around, but let yourself be surprised, ”said the former professional about the Berlin transfer activities.
Hertha should probably deal "urgently with possible new signings".
Mario Götze: crazy Bayern return?
Neuer and Flick fuel speculation
Munich - It would be the transfer that nobody would have expected this summer.
Mario Götze
and a second attempt at
FC Bayern
- that sounds bizarre and unlikely at first.
But at second glance, it becomes apparent that neither party could do that much wrong with one move.
Götze does not cost any transfer and is not able to demand an exorbitant salary due to his situation as a player without a contract.
Means: Munich would hardly take a risk, which is not unimportant in view of the difficult times at the moment.
Conversely, FC Bayern Götze offers Götze the chance to fulfill his greatest wish:
to win the
Champions League
*.
Mario Götze to Bayern?
Manuel Neuer with frank words
It is well known that FCB coach
Hansi Flick is
an avowed fan of Götze and regularly speaks to him on the phone.
Even
Manuel Neuer
*
sang, asked about a possible idol change to Bayern, the praises of the World Cup heroes of 2014 "Mario is a very good player who knows the environment of Bayern.
He has ambitious goals and is very ambitious.
He's in good shape, ”said Neuer at the
press conference
* before the Supercup game against
Sevilla FC
.
He finishes his statement remarkably openly: “We'll see where he ends up later.
I can only say that Mario Götze is a very good player. "
Neuer also recently gave an interview - did he reveal the next FCB transfer there? *
Mario Götze back to Bayern?
That would be so crazy ... and somehow awesome at the same time!
Can't explain / justify it rationally, but I would celebrate it brutally.

Mario Götze to Bayern?
Salihamidzic and Rummenigge are not convinced by Götze
Dislike looks different - these words could almost be described as offensive.
However, the bosses of FC Bayern seem to be unconvinced.
In many places it can be read that
Hasan Salihamidzic
and
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge are
not fans of a Götze commitment.
Flick also took a step back after praising Götze again.
“I really appreciate Mario and I also know where his strengths are.
It's not an issue for us at the moment, ”said the trainer.
At a photo appointment with FC Bayern, however, there was confusion - will Javi Martínez's move burst? *
Mario Götze to Bayern?
World Cup hero wants to make a decision by the end of September
Whether Götze could help the newly crowned triple winner athletically is questionable.
Under Favre at
Borussia Dortmund
* he was only a replacement.
However, Flick would be able to put the 28-year-old back on track and get him
back on track,
like the national players
Jerome Boateng
and
Thomas Müller
.
Conversely, a Bayern move could ruin Götze's career for good if it is not used.
The midfielder had announced that he would commit to
a new club
by the
end of September
.
So there is not much time left.
