Former FC Bayern CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, now 67, knows Julian Nagelsmann needs time at the club despite his meteoric rise as a coach. In an interview with BR24 Sport, he explained ‚he’s a great coaching talent, but you mustn’t forget he’s a very young coach with lots of experience he needs to gain. Then when you coach a team of FC Bayern’s calibre, it’s not easy either‘
Julian Nagelsmann became the Bundesliga’s most expensive coach after they bought him out of his contract for a figure around 25m€, and the club’s third-youngest coach ever. During the ‚min-crisis‘, he used this time to meticulously analyse matches and talk 1-on-1 with players
Before the Leverkusen match, he said ‚of course I feel the pressure, but it doesn’t break me. This isn’t life-threatening. It’s about a job I want to do as long as possible‘
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge believes despite a crisis this season, Nagelsmann will very likely fulfil his contract until 2026 smoothly. It’s unlikely he will be fired anytime soon
