FC Bayern will have to restructure in the summer. Kathleen Krüger’s move to Hamburger SV appears to be as good as certain, with only the final details still to be clarified. Now it has emerged that Bayern are making concessions to HSV
According to the Hamburger Abendblatt, Krüger will take up her position at Hamburger SV, where she will work as head of sport, on July 1, i.e. directly at the start of the new season
Interesting: FC Bayern is accommodating the Hanseatic club by letting its head of organization and infrastructure out of her contract early due to her merits at the club, as she actually has a notice period of three months
Krüger faces new job at HSV
FC Bayern regret internally that they are losing Krüger, but the challenge at HSV is a big one and the role is naturally a very interesting one for her. Krüger has been firmly anchored at FC Bayern for years, has always had a good relationship with the team and has gained insights into various processes
Officially, the former Bayern player will take over from Stefan Kuntz, but together with board member Eric Huwer, she will primarily focus on the strategic development of the club and also set up the youth development work, which costs almost eight million euros a year, economically, according to the report
Claus Costa, who is already involved in the squad planning for the coming season and is making initial contacts, will continue to play a key role in transfers. It remains to be seen how FC Bayern will position itself when Krüger is no longer involved from the new season onwards. There could be changes, but those responsible will discuss this in detail internally and announce a decision in due course.
