Summary of the relevant points in Falk's Podcast - 13.10.2023

Be aware that I am transcribing while listening to it, so any grammatical or rhetorical mistakes are just part of the flair. And no guarantee that this is complete, it's what I deem interesting. - A delegation of Bundesliga managers traveled with the German national team to the US to network with US franchises, including Freund and Eberl - contract extension: nothing much happened yet, Sane will be the first one, Kimmich after. Müller and Neuer aren't high priority, could even only be a topic next spring - Wirtz: Brazzo was the main driver, Falk tells about the story where Wirtz and his dad were in a Munich Beergarden with a Bayern representative, and Wirtz loved that we were interested. It'll probably get hot from our side again - we will target a defender and a DM in the winter, maybe even an added youth talent on top - Manu Kone: he is on the list and we are watching him - Palhinha: a transfer in the winter isn't excluded, but he will be probably a bit more expensive than in the summer - Ouedraogo: we are scouting him, Altschäffl rightly says that it's our job to have an eye on German talent. - Mustafi: no interest - Phillips: is discussed internally, but only in the beginning stages

Summary of the relevant points in Falk's podcast

Be aware that I am transcribing while listening to it, so any grammatical or rhetorical mistakes are just part of the flair. And no guarantee that this is complete, it's what I deem interesting. - Eberl: Mintzlaff asked him internally to confirm his intention to stay at Leipzig, and Eberl didn't give it. Not everyone of our higher ups is as hot in bringing him in as Hoeneß. Eberl visited Hoeneß' home at the Tegernsee in the summers of 2022 and 2023. In the next supervisory board meeting (in the week from the 13th of November) they will talk/make a decision. - who makes decisions: during the Kahn/Brazzo time Brazzo made the calls, and had to present his ideas to the supervisory board to get the funds (transfers that cost more than 25m€ incl. wages, so basically every transfer, are contingent on their clearance). During the task force every relevant board was included, so there was no need to present it to the supervisory board (I'll shorten it now to SVB). Nagelsmanns dismissal was decided by Brazzo + Kahn, the SVB got only informed. They weren't satisfied with that, and now they implemented a protocol that must include the SVB in decisions about high ranking employees. Currently Freund is the one who makes the player decisions. - Boateng: Münster was the deciding game that lead Freund to contact him. De Ligt is out for the next 2 weeks. The sporting side didn't trust Tikvic to make the necessary next steps. Altschäffl and Falk are both sceptical about the deal happening. - Sane: his decision about extending/leaving will happen next summer, everyone wants to keep him. Sane renovated his house and put a more modern gym in it, his family feels good in Munich - Casteels: no topic for Bayern. - Davies: no contract talks yet - Javier Guerra: Spanish CM talent from Valencia, we have him on our list, but nothing hot - some insights into the gala after the CL: not the best atmosphere, Uli Köhler (Sky commentator) was grumpy, location was bad, Tuchel stayed till 2:30 AM. Dreesen held the speech, and highlighted Ulreichs contribution to the win. Classic buffet (Rinderfilet und Geflügel, Pilzsauce, Kartoffelbrei, Panacotta, Schokokuchen), our beer sponsor always brings girls in a dirndl who give out beer, journalists have to pay for the food etc as to not be partial
