Report: Bayern Munich execs miscalculated optimism on Florian Wirtz, not pointing fingers at each other for failed pursuit
Briefly

Bayern Munich executives are reeling after Florian Wirtz rejected their transfer offer, but they emphasize unity and refuse to assign blame. Despite initial optimism fueled by a commitment from Wirtz's parents, it became clear that the player's commitment did not align. The club's leadership, including Max Eberl and others, are regrouping and strategizing for the 2025/26 season, acknowledging that while Wirtz would have improved their squad, they plan to explore other options to strengthen their attacking lineup.
There's no one to blame for the failure of the Wirtz transfer, that's how Bayern sees things.
Instead of identifying a culprit within the club, the people in charge rather believe that they miscalculated their optimism after they had received a 'kind of commitment' from Wirtz's parents.
Bayern Munich is now in the process of moving on and re-tooling its squad for the 2025/26 season.
Having Wirtz would have made things a bit easier, but the club will find other players to help bolster an already potent attack.
