Julian Nagelsmann: press conference from Leipzig in the live ticker - new Bayern coach speaks
At 1.30 p.m. Nagelsmann is expected for a press conference in Leipzig on Tuesday.
Then he will make his first public statement about his new role.
Initially, he was quoted as follows in the Red Bulls * official communication:
“Since my first game, in August 2019 against VfL Osnabrück, I have grown hugely dear to RB Leipzig with all of its players, employees and the entire region.
We all experienced special things with a lot of heart and soul.
I will leave RB Leipzig with a heavy heart.
I'm able to train a great team here, in a club that offers you all the opportunities and the best conditions to work successfully.
Everyone, including the team around the team and every single employee, has contributed to the fact that we have filled our pages in the history books of RB Leipzig together and are still in the process of continuing our history.
I am very proud of that.
Julian Nagelsmann: "Leipzig is something special"
Our entry into the Champions League semi-finals was certainly the highlight of our time together so far, a great moment that I will never forget. In the current season, we are also about to have the best season of the Bundesliga membership of RB Leipzig. We want to achieve this with all our might - and of course to hold 'something tinny' in our hands for the first time in the club's history. It's still too early to say goodbye and otherwise talk about memories, because I'm not finished here in Leipzig. My mission will end in the summer, but until then it will continue at full throttle. We have grown into a sworn bunch that finally want a title.
Leipzig is something special - and yet I'll go.
I have never made a secret of the fact that I am excited about the coaching position at Bayern Munich and that I would be happy to take on this job if this one-time opportunity should arise.
It is something very special for me to take on the position of coach at FC Bayern.
I would therefore like to thank Oliver Mintzlaff and everyone in charge at RB Leipzig for finding a solution together with FC Bayern to make this wish possible for me.
Now we are fully focused on the remaining three games in the Bundesliga and of course on the DFB Cup semi-finals, in order to complete this season as successfully as possible. ”
