Hansi Flick couldn't take it anymore. It had been an open secret and, finally, He blew up the bomb as soon as he beat Wolfsburg 2-3 on Saturday with Bayern. The coach who conquered the first sextet in the history of the German team wants to leave at the end of the season and, in this way, put an end to his time at Bayern despite his contract in the Bavarian capital until 2023. This was admitted by Flick himself before the cameras of the Sky television network.
“I want to terminate my contract this summer, that is a fact”Flick made clear, adding: “It was important to me that the team found out from me. I already told those responsible after our elimination in the Champions League during the week“. Everything indicates that the club leadership, despite having reiterated on numerous occasions that Flick has a contract and is not available, do not end up putting stones in the way of the coach when it comes to becoming a Mannschaft coach.
Bad relationship with sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic seems to have exhausted patience of a Flick that wants to take the next step in his career, yes, not without being grateful to Bayern. “It was not an easy decision for me”Flick explained. “I am a fan of this club. Gerd Müller, Paul Breitner and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge were my childhood idols. I am grateful to the club for the opportunity it has given me to become a coach, “he concluded.
Without wanting to go into detail about the reasons for his goodbye, the technician hinted that, although there are fringes to be solved, he will become the successor of Joachim Löw in the German national team. “It is clear that the national team is an option that every coach must consider. These last few weeks haven't been easy for me, I was in the process of informing the club and my team, which was very important. There is nothing more to say, “concluded Flick.
