What does Franz Beckenbauer actually say about the new Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann?
The emperor has now expressed himself in an interview.
Munich - FC Bayern * is in a state of major upheaval.
Yes, this sentence has been used a lot in the recent past.
For example, when Franck Ribéry and Arjen Robben left the club.
Or the summer Pep Guardiola moved to Manchester City.
The change of president from Uli Hoeneß to Herbert Hainer?
Sure - a change!
But it was seldom as intense as in spring 2021.
Finally, Julian Nagelsmann * is a new coach, and long-time all-round winners such as David Alaba, Jerome Boateng and Javi Martinez are leaving the record champions.
And: The chairs are slowly moving on the executive floor.
In the Nagelsmann deal, the future CEO Oliver Kahn had the reins in hand for the first time.
He and sports director Hasan Salihamidzic steered the carriage to Säbener Straße - in summer the biggest trainer jewel in Europe jumps from it.
Julian Nagelsmann: does he collect titles at Bayern Munich?
Franz Beckenbauer assesses the change
Yes, FCB is on the way to a new future. Nagelsmann / Kahn / Salihamidzic / Hainer - that is the new face of the German industry leader. Meanwhile, the current boss, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, is slowly withdrawing, officially handing over his office to "Titan" on January 1, 2022. Franz Beckenbauer * naturally observed this change very closely. The honorary president, the Bayern legend, said in an interview with
Sport Bild
: "I don't see any problems there."
The 75-year-old also has an opinion on Julian Nagelsmann.
The world champion attests that the current Leipzig coach has a visible “signature” on his teams.
And he congratulates Bayern on a good election.
At 33, however, the new coach is younger than his captain Manuel Neuer, for example.
Isn't that dangerous?
Beckenbauer: "The question will be how he comes across, how does he behave."
Franz Beckenbauer on Julian Nagelsmann: "It is clear that the team will test him"
In Hoffenheim and Leipzig there were never any problems because of Nagelsmann's age.
In Munich * he will of course find a different spirit - which is why Beckenbauer prophesies: “It is clear that the team will test him.
That's how it is.
He knows that.
He has to be prepared for it.
Otherwise I don't see any reason why he can't do it. "
The Kaiser knows that the native Landsberger never experienced the great successes as a player. “It is said that the more successful you are as a player, the better you are as a coach. It's easier for you when you have something to show for yourself. You appear more convincing. ”The best example is Beckenbauer himself, who had cleared everything in his active time and was then also successful as a coach. But he also emphasizes that good players do not necessarily make a good coach.
At Nagelsmann, Beckenbauer is confident in his career so far, even without major trophies.
He could now win titles with Bayern.
However: “The successes that Hansi had cannot be repeated.
You can't be that successful again. ”After all, Flick * quickly won all the trophies that one can only dream of in club football.
That it comes to a separation in the end "is possibly sensible," says Beckenbauer.
It is "better for both sides to part".
