The Corona crisis has frozen many clubs’ plans. The transfer market is still, at least still. Because the negotiations continue in the background. At Bayern there could be trouble.

Before the Corona break, FC Bayern took a top position purely for sport. In the Bundesliga, the record champion is at the top of the table, four points behind second. The Flick-Elf stands with one leg in the Champions League quarter-finals and has already solved the semi-final ticket in the cup.
But the sporty, relaxed situation could be a little bit tricky elsewhere. As the “Sport Bild” reports, a power struggle between coach Hansi Flick and sports director Hasan Salihamidzic threatens. Accordingly, Flick maintains his demand that he, as a coach, wants to have a veto right on transfers.
Memories of Niko Kovac come to life
However, that would limit the area of competence of Sport Director Salihamidzic. So far, he had his hat when planning the squad, which Flick predecessor Niko Kovac should not always have liked.
According to the report, Kovac “did not pick up on Salihamidzic’s commitments, did not hear his proposals”. The report does not show whether Flick is the same. The fact is that Flick wanted two new players in winter, but only got one (Alvaro Odriozola). If things go on like this in the near future, this could lead to tensions. The contract negotiations with Flick itself (running until 2021) would not make that any easier.
