Der Spiegel has revealed WhatsApp messages between Niklas Süle and agent Murat Lokurlu in the process files of a dispute between two of Süle's (and Timo Werner) former agents ⤵️
In 12 November 2018, Süle allegedly sent the following text to agent Lokurlu: "Check the offers from England if anyone wants me there. If someone from the big clubs would take me, let me know. Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, but preferably ManU"
Lokurlu responded: "Seriously?"
Süle: "Yeah I'm dead serious. Okay Super Murat, would be great if you could get that moving"
Julian Nagelsmann on the personnel: "Serge and Jamal have resumed training. King is not yet an option for Fürth, but we are happy that he is running again. Coco Tolisso is not an option either, but is getting better. Lucas had a slight knee problem yesterday but is back today"
Nagelsmann: "Christian Früchtl will replace Sven Ulreich in the squad"
Nagelsmann on tomorrow's game: "The objectives of the two teams are totally different. Fürth have just been promoted, and it's not easy to establish themselves in the league straight away. We are favourites and we want to win. We are top of the table and want to stay there"
The documentary will be 6 episodes, fully available on the streaming service from November 2. The cameras have followed the team closely since the treble win in summer 2020. Dressing room speeches, team meetings, negotiations in the board of directors, committee meetings..
in-depth discussions, virtual and real fan meetings as well as the most emotional moments on the pitch - all of this awaits fans in this unique series [fcb]
Oliver Kahn: "We are very pleased that the release of “FC Bayern - Behind the Legend‘ ”is getting closer. In this documentary, our fans will experience the club closer than ever before: how FC Bayern works, with all its characteristics and facets."
Lewandowski: "I'm very proud and happy. When I was injured, I didn't think I would achieve a number that would bring me close to this record. But after returning, I believed it was possible"
Lewandowski: "Matching Gerd Müller is amazing, I admire him very much. I never expected I would be able to break this record one day"
Lewandowski: "I have to say thank you to my wife. She is a great support for me and a motivation when things go a bit worse"
Nagelsmann on the personnel: "Serge will travel with us. Coco will not travel. King will be with us, but not yet an option to start, so we'll have to wait for tomorrow. We'll have to wait and see for Serge too. Regarding Lewy, things are looking very good"
Sabitzer an option to start?
Nagelsmann: "Every player with us is a player for the starting XI. I think Sabi can play better than he did against Leipzig. Given the situation, and the whistles, it wasn't that easy. He was subbed in during a difficult phase too"
Changes on the lineup (from Saturday)?
Nagelsmann: "We have not made a final decision. In terms of performance, there is no reason to change. Bouna Sarr also was very involved in training yesterday. I'll make a decision together with the medical team tomorrow"
Manuel Neuer: "Of course You don't forget such games (8-2), but Barcelona have a completely different team now. The players who are playing now will take on more responsibility because Messi is no longer there. I think tactically they will be better (than in 2020)"
Neuer: "That game back then certainly hurt Barcelona. But these are now two new games in the group stage and we're looking forward to two big games. This is a huge game to start with. We're looking forward to our Champions League journey this season."
Neuer: "It's cool that we now have so many spectators in the stadium now. We saw that over the weekend in Leipzig. It's difficult to judge the teams now because we're all still at the beginning of the season."
