On Wednesday evening, FC Bayern meets Viktoria Köln in the DFB Cup.

Are the superstars spared?

Julian Nagelsmann answered this question on Tuesday at the PK.

• FC Bayern

  meets

  Viktoria Köln

  in

  the

  first round of the DFB Cup

• Coach

  Julian Nagelsmann

  announced that he would rest some stars in the third division

• At the

  press conference

  before the game, the Bayern coach also revealed a lion secret

• The

  live ticker for FCB-PK

  is continuously updated

Update from August 30, 12:31 p.m .: Well

, that’s it from Säbener Straße!

The PK is over, Julian Nagelsmann was, as usual, very in need of communication and revealed large parts of the line-up.

Ryan Gravenberch, Noussair Mazraoui and Matthijs de Ligt are likely to start.

Youngster Mathys Tel may also get his chance right from the start.

The Bayern coach on...

… the goals in the DFB Cup:

“I can’t say that we want to finish second, can I?

I showed my boys more videos of the opponent because they don't know the Bundesliga players.

In general, Olaf Janssen is a courageous coach.

They have good set pieces and they will try to get there often.

They played against Sixty now, but they will play differently against us.”

... Cologne's game against the lions:

"The analysts will watch the entire game, hopefully.

They get money for that.

I've also watched a few Löwen games.

I hope I can reveal that here without there being posters in the south.”

… a possible departure from Bouna Sarr on Deadline Day:

“As of now, there will be nothing.

I don't know if anything happens.

You can rarely predict that.

There were one or two players who haven't played much in the last year.

We won't lose many players anymore, otherwise it will be difficult with 11-a-side in training.

But let's see what else happens tomorrow."

Julian Nagelsmann on...

... Salihamidzic's contract extension:

"Brazzo was one of the main reasons they brought me on.

I am very happy that his contract has been extended.

He has also worked well during difficult transfer periods.

Hasan has a very good connection to everyone in the club, including the board of directors.

We've done a good job in this transfer window, it's always a teamwork.

We also get along well privately, it's not always just about football, there's sometimes nonsense, that's also important.

I assume we'll still be working together for years to come if he doesn't kick me out."

… a possible protection from Kimmich and Müller:

“No!

Mathys

will get his chance, as will Stani

, Ryan

and Nouz

you will see.

But also Müller and Kimmich, they are not spared.

… the squad for the cup game:

“Basically everyone is fit, but Jamal Musiala is still not at 100 percent.

Therefore, although he is in the squad, he is unlikely to play from the start.

There could be five changes, we also want to give other players the rhythm.

With Leon Goretzka and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting-Moting, it looks like I'd like to give them rhythm, but they certainly won't start, but we'll see."

Update from August 30, 11:55 a.m .:

So, in a few minutes we'll start on Säbener Straße.

Then coach Julian Nagelsmann will appear in front of the press.

First report from August 30, 10:17 a.m .:

Munich – On Wednesday, FC Bayern will finally start in the DFB Cup.

Since the DFL Supercup was scheduled to coincide with the first round of the cup at the beginning of August, Munich and RB Leipzig had to postpone the start of the cup by a month.

FCB-PK in the ticker: Do you spare the superstars in the cup game in Cologne, Mr. Nagelsmann?

Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann may not be too wrong about the delayed cup break.

Because after the furious start to the season, the record champions “only” drew 1-1 (0-1) against Borussia Mönchengladbach last Saturday.

So now there's an opportunity to make amends again.

Nagelsmann could start the rotary machine for the first time this season.

Players like Matthijs de Ligt or Serge Gnabry, who weren't fit at the start of the season or were recently slowed down by injuries, could be in the starting XI for third division club Viktoria Köln.

Perhaps the Bayern coach will even reveal a few details about possible transfers, because after all the transfer window closes on September 1st and Bayern still want to give up one or two players.

Nagelsmann will answer questions from the press at the press conference on Tuesday at 12 noon on Säbener Strasse.
