Chapter 31 Bayern Munich's invitation

Germany, Bavaria, Bayern Munich.

For Bayern, the invitation to participate in the Deutsche Telekom Cup is just a small matter.

They don't really care about it. Compared to the Telecom Cup, the team's performance next season is what they really care about!

The Bundesliga giants have had quite poor results in recent seasons and they have been without a championship for two years.

Last season, they were defeated twice by their direct rival Dortmund in the league, and then suffered a crushing 2:5 defeat to their opponent in the German Cup final, being completely unilaterally beaten by Dortmund.

This is a great shame for Bayern Munich! If the disappointment in the league can be exchanged for the championship trophy in the Champions League, it is not unacceptable.

But what is sad is that the team also failed to win any prize in the Champions League.

In the 2010-2011 season, they were eliminated in the round of 16, and in the 2011-2012 season, they were eliminated in the finals. . . .

Bayern really wants to write a big word "miserable" on the ground...

Fortunately, under the leadership of veteran coach Heynckes, the team's condition has steadily improved.

Reaching the Champions League final last season is already a good proof. I believe that if he is given some more time, he will be able to lead Bayern back to the top.

However, in this situation, Heynckes came up with the idea of ​​retiring, which caught everyone in Bayern off guard.

Bayern Munich knows very well how important a good coach is.

The famous coach they had previously hired, Van Gaal, led the team to the worst start in the team's history, with defeats on three fronts in the league, cup and Champions League.

This made the club angry, so they fired him without waiting for the end of the season and invited back the old coach Heynckes.

Facts have proved that the old coach is more suitable for Bayern.

After Heynckes took office, he not only stopped the decline, but also led Bayern to the Champions League final.

If it hadn't been for bad luck and losing to Chelsea in the penalty shootout, the team would have won the Champions League trophy last year.

This season, Bayern's young players have grown further and the team's tactical system has become more mature.

They are determined to win the league title and even the Champions League this season. If they can win these two important titles, it will mean that Bayern has returned to the top level in Europe.

But just when they were full of confidence and planning to rebuild the Bayern dynasty, Heynckes was about to retire.

This made everyone in Bayern a little overwhelmed!

Heynckes was born in 1945 and is now 67 years old, which is indeed a bit old.

However, Sir Alex Ferguson, the Manchester United coach who is four years older than him, has not retired yet. The old coach can definitely stay for a few more years! Facing the club chairman Rummenigge who came to persuade him, the old coach shook his head:

"President Rummenigge, thank you for your continued support over the years.

But I've made my decision, you know I'm not a person who likes living in the spotlight.

I am 68 years old, which is a bit too old for me. I am afraid that my old bones cannot bear it if I continue to lead the team to participate in the competition.

Moreover, I want to retire, go home, plant some flowers and plants, and enjoy the pastoral life while I can still move.

So, please don't try to keep me here. I promise you that I will lead the team to the end of this season. I will leave the team only after the last game of this season.

During this period, you have enough time to contact other outstanding coaches, listen to their coaching philosophies, and find the most suitable candidate for Bayern.

Of course, I can provide you with some references and suggestions when necessary."

Heynckes just informed the club first so that the club can prepare in advance.

Otherwise, if he suddenly announces his retirement next year and the club fails to find a suitable successor, Bayern will definitely be in chaos.

Rummenigge was very disappointed when he heard what Heynckes said.

How can it be so easy to find a good coach? In today's football world, the best coaches are basically already taken, so it may not be easy to poach them.

Although Bayern can call the shots in the Bundesliga, their financial resources are no match for the top clubs in the five major leagues.

Therefore, when Rummenigge heard that Heynckes was going to retire, he felt very troubled.

He even had the idea of ​​inviting back Hitzfeld, the legendary coach of the Swiss national team, but he quickly rejected the idea.

The team's previous poor results have proved that Hitzfeld's approach is outdated and no longer suitable for the current team.

He needs to find a coach with outstanding coaching ability and a unique understanding of the latest football tactics, especially passing and controlling tactics.

"Chairman, there is someone who seems to meet our requirements, and he is currently unemployed. Why don't we invite him and try to get in touch with him?"

When club manager Uli Hoeness heard Rummenigge's request, he immediately thought of someone.

He had also heard rumors that this person had been to Germany a few months ago and wondered if he had received an invitation to coach a Bundesliga team.

If this is the case, it proves that the other party has the possibility to come to the Bundesliga to coach.

Bayern is not afraid of anyone in the entire Bundesliga except Dortmund, and Klopp of Dortmund will not pack up and leave anytime soon.

So the club that invites that person will not be Dortmund. As long as it is not Dortmund, Bayern will be confident that it can snatch him away.

"who?"

Rummenigge asked curiously.

"Former Barcelona coach, Guardiola!"

"he?!"

Rummenigge's eyes lit up when he heard the name! There are many top coaches in today's football world, but there are only two most popular coaches: Guardiola and Mourinho!

These two players are at the top level in football in terms of both strength and fame, especially the former.

The passing and controlling system pioneered by Guardiola has become popular in the entire football world in recent years and has become an object of emulation all over the world.

Invite him to coach Bayern Munich and bring Barcelona's style to Bayern. Wouldn't Bayern take off immediately?

When he thought of this, Rummenigge could hardly contain his excitement.

Now there is only one last question: "Will Guardiola agree to our invitation?"

He is a little unconfident. The other party doesn't even want Barcelona, ​​so can he accept Bayern's invitation?

The Bundesliga's competitiveness is much lower than that of La Liga, and its commercial development is not good enough, so it has never been very attractive to top coaches.

"How do you know if you don't try? I heard his adopted son plays in the Bundesliga, and that team happens to be our opponent in the Telecom Cup next month.

I think we can invite him in the name of watching the Telecom Cup. When he comes, you, the chairman, can personally meet with him and show him your sincerity. Whether it can be achieved depends on the result of the two-way interview. "

Hoeness had obviously done very thorough preparations, even investigating in advance the relationship between Lin Quan and Guardiola, as well as his playing in the Bundesliga.

Obviously, the idea of ​​inviting Guardiola to coach was not a sudden whim, but a long-planned one.

Rummenigge stared at Hoeness for a few seconds, and then the two smiled at each other tacitly.

"I'll leave this matter to you, don't mess it up!"

Let's talk about the update issue.

Many book friends have urged me to update too slowly. I have to admit that I don’t update much, only two chapters a day.

Although I don't type very fast, I still have some drafts saved.

It’s a pity that now is the new book period, and I dare not publish too much, because I haven’t put it up for trial promotion yet. Under normal circumstances, it should be published when it has 30,000 to 40,000 words, but I have already put up 80,000 words, which is a week late.

If there are too many updates at this time, the subsequent recommendations may not be completed before the word count is reached.

Therefore, if you have any manuscripts left, you have to keep them and update them only when they are put on the shelves. Please understand.

During this period of time, I will save more manuscripts and wait until they are put on the shelves. I will guarantee at least ten chapters when they are put on the shelves.

Of course, you can also urge for updates. If the reward reaches 5,000 Qidian coins, one more chapter will be added. If the monthly tickets reach 100, one more chapter will be added.

I won't say any more. I'm going to start writing some new words. I'll try to save dozens or even hundreds of chapters!
