Bayern Munich's sporting director Max Eberl was not prepared to let this verbal jibe from his former boss at RB Leipzig go unchallenged. "I heard it too," said Eberl after FC Bayern's 5-0 win over TSG Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga, speaking to reporters in the Allianz Arena about RB supervisory board chairman Oliver Mintzlaff.
"I don't know if it does justice to the players Openda, Baumgartner, Lukeba, Xavi Simons that padel tennis was the only good thing," said Eberl about his achievements during his short time as managing director of sport at the Saxons. He also listed the contract extension with Dani Olmo. The Spanish international was later sold to FC Barcelona for a lot of money.
