He can already do some exercises.
We have to see from day to day what is possible in terms of pain so that we don’t start too early.”

1.02 p.m.:
Freund, who is also acting as a replacement for the ill Thomas Tuchel today, gives another insight into the last-minute transfer from Zaragoza: “Originally it wasn't planned that way, but because of the injuries we then discussed it and finally tried. to bring him to Munich now.
I was in Spain again and the conversations were very good.
We’re glad he’s here now.”

Buenos días, Bryan!

First report from February 2nd:
Munich - FC Bayern actually wanted to avoid transfer stress until the last day of the winter period - but the serious injury to Kingsley Coman left Christoph Freund with no choice.
The sports director delivered and quickly brought forward Bryan Zaragoza's move, which was actually scheduled for the summer.
The 22-year-old was an absolute crowd favorite at FC Granada.
He actually wanted to prevent his team from being relegated from the Primera Division in the second half of the season, but Munich's reputation was too tempting.
Not surprising, because Zaragoza has a very good chance of getting minutes against the injury-hit record champions.
Bryan Zaragoza is a FC Bayern player sooner than expected.

The new addition to Säbener Straße will be presented on Friday at 1 p.m.
The media round also functions as a matchday press conference before the home game against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday afternoon (3:30 p.m.).
As a rule, Thomas Tuchel would also speak, but the Bayern coach was unable to lead the final training sessions due to a flu-like infection.
It is still questionable whether he will be able to take part in the PK and the game on Saturday.
Whether with or without Tuchel:
