Uli Hoeneß and Thomas Tuchel – this will probably no longer become a love affair. After the dispute he caused over Tuchel’s treatment of young players, the club’s honorary president even stepped up.
Honorary President Uli Hoeneß does not give in: Despite the criticism from all sides – including by Reiner CalmundThe 72-year-old now followed up in the “Kicker” after showing a lack of understanding of his ill-timed criticism of Tuchel and the dispute he instigated. Regarding the sentence that Tuchel prefers to demand new players in the event of failures rather than improve his own, he stands, assured Hoeneß. He added that he thinks the row between him and the coach was blown up by the media.

At the same time, the former “Attack Department” of the German soccer record champions emphasized that they would not keep their assessments hidden in the future. Rather, the 72-year-old announced that he was “determined to make my opinion clearer again.”
Tuchel: “Topic has been ticked off”
Thomas Tuchel was of course also asked about it again at the press conference before the semi-final first leg against Real Madrid, but the future former Munich coach dismissed it: “I won’t say anything more about that, the topic has been ticked off.”

He felt his “coaching honor had been violated,” he said on Saturday on the sidelines of the Bundesliga game against Eintracht Frankfurt (2-1).Hoeneß’s statements were “absolutely baseless”.
