FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich face each other next Wednesday the 23rd (9 pm) at Montjuïc on the third day of the 2024-25 Champions League. Karl Heinz Rummanigge, Ballon d’Or in 1980 and 1981, was mentioned in an interview for Kicker in two references to a Bayern team that recently made history and that now leads Barça, one on the bench, Hansi Flick, and another on the pitch. , Robert Lewandowski. Filled his opinion with anecdotes of personal coexistence with Flick and Lewandowski, Rummenigge maintains a wonderful memory of the score that both left at the Bavarian club.
About Hansi Flick
“You don’t win seven titles if you’re not good”
“When Flick is with us, he comes to my office three times a week to have coffee and talk about everything. He needs contacts he can trust and I’m sorry, if I say, he wasn’t in the German Federation, when he was coach. You don’t win seven titles in a year and a half if you’re not a good coach. I told him then: ‘Be careful,’” he recalled.
About Robert Lewandowski
“I have never seen a more honest player than him”
“There are several signings that are important for Bayern. One of them is Robert Lewandowski. He is a goal-scoring machine, really good. I have never seen a more honest player than him. I spoke to him about whatever. He always gave me an honest answer, and not a prefabricated or favorable answer. You have to understand that this is an incredibly important mentor to me.”
