Despite the renewed championship title, sports director Salihamidzic and CEO Kahn have to leave FC Bayern. After the game there was a discussion between Salihamidzic and President Hainer.
Update from May 28, 12:06 p.m.: Hot discussions on the pitch shortly following winning the title. On the field in Cologne, there was a lively conversation between Herbert Hainer and the newly released Hasan Salihamidzic. TV cameras captured the situation. At a press conference on Sunday, Hainer explained what was at stake. “We talked regarding how the evening would be organized,” Hainer described the situation when asked by journalists. Hainer asked Salihamidzic to accompany the team to the celebrations in Munich, even though he had just been relieved of his post. That worked very well. “I think he was one of the last,” said Hainer, describing the fact that Salihamidzic was apparently in a party mood despite everything.
First report: Munich – Contrary to most expectations, FC Bayern Munich has been crowned German champion for the eleventh time in a row. However, winning the title cannot hide the fact that the record champions had a mixed season at best. Apparently the supervisory board sees it that way too. In an extraordinary supervisory board meeting convened at short notice, he decided that Hasan Salihamidzic and Oliver Kahn had to pack their things, how tz found out and the club has now officially announced. First reported Bild and Kicker regarding the breakup.
Salihamidzic only found out shortly following the game once morest FC Köln that he and Kahn had no future at Bayern. TV pictures showed how the Bosnian discussed with President Herbert Hainer on the pitch following the game. The visibly upset Salihamidzic gesticulated wildly. Finally, Jan-Christian Dreesen, most recently CFO, came along and the conversation was over. Dreesen is to succeed Kahn as Bayern CEO.
FC Bayern statement: “Different views on future direction”
Kahn himself did not travel to Cologne. Most recently, there was talk of the former goalkeeper suffering from flu. However, the upcoming dismissal might also have been the reason for this. Shortly following the first media reports, FC Bayern confirmed that the two officials had been kicked out. In a Announcement on the club’s website it is said that the decision was not taken lightly by the supervisory board in either case. Due to the overall development, they finally decided to separate.
In the case of Salihamidzic, “different views on the future direction of our team” are also given as a reason. FC Bayern was eliminated from the DFB Cup and the Champions League within a few weeks and almost lost the championship as well. Just because Dortmund messed up once morest Mainz (2:2), it was still enough for Munich in the end. The media, fans and experts blamed Kahn and Salihamidzic for the poor performance – partly because of the sudden dismissal of coach Julian Nagelsmann at the end of the season.
Hainer explains when he was kicked out
While fans and players celebrated the championship, President Hainer commented on the personnel consequences that the club is drawing from the troubled and sportingly unsatisfactory season. Hainer explained that in the meantime Kahn and Salihamidzic had noticed what was decided at the extraordinary supervisory board meeting. At the time, the President said: “It was incredibly important for us to announce this following the game today. Because we’ve always said we want to concentrate 100 percent on the sport, on winning the German championship.”
According to Hainer, the team also found out following the game. It is not yet known who will follow Salihamidzic as sports director. Hainer announced a press conference for tomorrow (Sunday) where all the details will be announced. In addition, the regular meeting on June 30th is to take place as planned – despite the groundbreaking extraordinary meeting around Honorary President Uli Hoeneß.
