Rummenigge reflects on Bayern missing out on Wirtz and Woltemade

In an interview with Sport Bild, Bayern supervisory board member Karl-Heinz Rummenigge reflected on losing out on the two German stars.

“I have to be honest, in the case of Florian Wirtz, I still feel sorry, because I believe the player would have been better off at Bayern Munich than at Liverpool," Rummenigge said.

“We certainly could have signed Woltemade. But I also have to say: Bayern Munich are wise not to take part in every financial madness. I have always said: we want sporting success, but in a serious and financially sound way.

"We have a top team. Again this year. And when the three currently injured players (Jamal Musiala, Alphonso Davies, Hiroki Ito, editor's note) return soon, we will have a fantastic squad.”
