For powerful environments, the Bayern. There is probably not a club in the world with voices that inspire more respect than the Bavarian, because they don’t usually use politically correct messages. Even Pep Guardiola he was a year less in Munich than in Barcelona. The case Robert Lewandowski‘ has given rise to all the priests of the eternal champion of the Bundesliga to position themselves in favor or against the departure of the Golden Boot to the Camp Nou. The last to intervene in the matter has been the historic coach Ottmar Hitzfeld. “If Lewandowski wants to leave, let him go, it makes no sense to continue together,” said the coach who made Bayern European champion in 2001, after 25 years without the ‘orejona’.
Among his arguments, Hitzfeld included that of making room for the new signing up front, Sadio Manéwho arrives in Munich after being a star in the Liverpool. But, above all, he insisted that it is not convenient to keep a footballer in a squad who has already made a clear statement about his desire to change scenery, with how counterproductive it can be for the locker room environment to retain someone against the will of the. “My opinion was and always will be: if a player wants to leave, let him go. It makes no sense to continue together”, were the words of Hitzfeld in an interview granted to the Munich newspaper Evening News.
“At the end of the day, all players want to be successful. But the entire Bayern environment is naturally upset because of Lewandowski’s actions,” he commented.
