Bayern Munich CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen heard the statements made by Bayer Leverkusen CEO Fernando Carro about Bayern Munich board member for sport Max Eberl and had a reaction.
Well, quite a reaction.
Needless to say, Dreesen was not pleased and fired a dart back over in the direction of the Leverkusen boss publicly — and personally to Carro via a “private conversation.”
“We were deeply annoyed by Fernando Carro’s personal attack on Max Eberl. I also told Fernando Carro this in a private conversation, because we can and will never tolerate, let alone accept, such unprofessional attacks on FC Bayern. He has acknowledged that he made a mistake by issuing a public apology. Despite our sporting rivalry, we should still be guided by mutual respect,” said Dreesen in statement released by FCBayern.com.
While the situation is at rest for the moment, things are certainly getting spicy among the power clubs at the top of the Bundesliga.
Quick! Someone ask Uli Hoeneß what he thinks about Borussia Dortmund.
