Bayern Munich has initiated transfer efforts to acquire Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz, a player both Uli Hoeness and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge publicly admire. Rummenigge's assertion that Wirtz is 'the best player in Germany' has incited backlash. Former Bayern player Lothar Matthäus criticized this statement, suggesting it undermines Jamal Musiala, who recently signed a lucrative contract. Matthäus leads a discourse on the implications of Rummenigge's remarks, expressing surprise and anticipating internal conflict resolution among Bayern executives regarding team dynamics and player valuations.
"Musiala's contract was recently extended in a deal worth around 175 million euros, which is obviously a lot of money... to say that such a player is not the best player in Germany is a slap in the face for Musiala."
"You can say you want to get Wirtz because he's a very good player... but in this form, I think Kalle has gone a bit too far."
"I was surprised when I read that. But I think that Kalle will get things straight at some point with his style - especially internally."
