Rummenigge — about Flick: «When will we ever find a coach who could win seven titles in just a year and a half?»

Member of the supervisory board of Munich’s Bayern, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, admitted that the club made a mistaken decision in dismissing Hans-Dieter Flick.

«I was very sad to see him leave. When will we ever find a coach who could win seven titles in just a year and a half? Despite a difficult start, by Christmas we were four points behind Leipzig but by the 34th round, we already had a 16-point lead. Bayern didn’t lose a single game under Flick’s management until the end of the 2020 season. These memories warm the soul.

We shared a legendary journey with him. I will never forget Lisbon. Hansi was completely convinced. After winning against Barcelona 8-2, he said: ‘Wonderful things are happening here; we are going to win the Champions League’. I thought that was very bold, but he proved it», — Rummenigge is quoted by Bavarian Football Works.
