Bayern Munich board member Max Eberl shared his thoughts on the club’s strategy for management and signings with BILD. He touched on topics such as who is going to succeed Tuchel and whether Bayern fans should expect more signings of Harry Kane’s caliber.
“We’ll have financial chances in the summer, but not limitless. New signings include sales to have the financial means to do something” he stated, pointing to a balanced approach for future transfers. The club aims to maintain a strong squad without compromising financial health, indicating high-value transfers like Kane’s are exceptions rather than the norm.
