Bayern Munich are entering the Champions League season with a perceived lack of support, according to honorary president Uli Hoeneß. Speaking ahead of the DFL’s general assembly in Berlin, Hoeneß embraced an underdog narrative fueled by a turbulent summer transfer window that saw the club miss out on several key targets.
Hoeneß stated, as reported by @iMiaSanMia, “I’m looking forward to this coming season because we’re going into the upcoming Champions League season like [TSG] Hoffenheim. Nobody is betting on us.”
The comments come after a transfer window marked by setbacks and public discussion of internal disagreements within Bayern’s leadership. While hoeneß, a long-time influential figure at the club and current member of the supervisory board, appears unfazed by external skepticism, the team’s performance will ultimately determine whether they can defy expectations.
