Only a few days ago, Uli Hoeness, president of Bayern, threatened not to relinquish players to the German national team if they took Neuer away from the Teutonic goal. Now it is Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, general director of the Bavarian club, who has raised his voice against the French Federation after the announcement of Lucas Hernández, despite having been absent in the last two games due to an injury.
The German club announced that, for medical reasons, it will not be able to make Hernández available to the French national team, but the French Football Federation demanded that Bayern travel the player anyway.
"I am irritated by the behavior of the French Federation. I would like to point out that, due to his injury, Lucas Hernández could not be in the Bayern team in our Champions League match last Tuesday in London against Tottenham Hotspur, not even in our Bundesliga match against TSG 1899 Hoffenheim on Saturday, "Rummenigge recalled in a statement. The manager added that "he expected" from the French Football Federation "greater understanding due to the high risk."
The situation is clear, according to Bayern Munich club physician Hans-Wilhelm Müller-Wohlfahrt. "I assume responsibility for the health of Lucas Hernández and I say that he cannot play in the matches ahead of the French national team, so his call is meaningless," he said.
