U. Hoeness promises war to the German Football Federation

Munich's "Bayern" manager Uli Hoeness has been advised by the German football federation not to even attempt to react to Marco-Andre ter Stegen's provocations. A real storm erupted in the German media after Ter Stegen publicly stated that he can no longer be content with the role of second goalkeeper and would like to push the national team captain Manuel Neuer out of this position. In a conversation with "Bild" U. Hoeness said that they will stop sending their players to the German national team if they decide to take away the first goalkeeper role from M. Neuer. "We will not agree to that," - said the "Bayern" president immediately. - "If we are informed before this happens, we will stop sending our players to the national team". In October, another national team camp will take place, where, according to the latest information, they plan to give a chance to the "Barcelona" goalkeeper. The representatives of the German Football Federation do not react to such threats from U. Hoeness. "We are not afraid of that. FIFA rules specify that a club must release its players to the national team if they are called up," - said DFB director Oliver Bierhoff.
