Munich (dpa) - Jérôme Boateng has left the dispute with the top of FC Bayern over his failed club change behind.

“I'm glad it all made sense that it turned out that way.

Football writes such stories, ”said the defender of the German record champions on Wednesday evening in the ARD's“ Sportschau Club ”.

The 32-year-old reaffirmed that he had sometimes felt that he had been treated unfairly by the Munich club bosses in the past.

"I would certainly have liked to have discussed and resolved a few issues differently," said Boateng.

He was disappointed that promises for a transfer had not been kept.

“I was promised that no obstacles would be put in my way and that a certain sum would be paid.

And that was the case in the end and was still not allowed, ”explained the central defender.

Since coach Niko Kovac switched to Hansi Flick, his situation has improved significantly.

"He changed a lot because under Hansi I got the confidence and the fair chance again," said Boateng.

The success of FC Bayern bears Flick's signature.

An extension of his contract, which expires at the end of the season, he could “absolutely imagine”.

Talks on this will be held again in the next few weeks.

Most recently there had been reports that the Bayern board had already decided to part ways with Boateng.

Boateng also does not want to hold a grudge against national coach Joachim Löw because of his retirement from the national team.

“The way is definitely better.

But the decision is absolutely legitimate, you can live with that, "said the 2014 world champion. Like Mats Hummels and Thomas Müller, he had" respected Löw's decision and accepted this path from the national coach ".

Boateng said he kept on exchanging ideas with Löw and had “good contact” with him.
