Bayern Munich board member for sport Max Eberl played a key role in helping goalkeeper Daniel Peretz land a loan assignment to Hamburger SV.
Peretz, however, did not win the starting job and even thought about ending the loan prematurely. Eberl is not yet ready to give up on the loan working just yet, though.
“The season just started. We made a joint decision and had exciting offers. He chose Hamburg. I was aware that in Daniel Heuer Fernandes they have a goalkeeper who has been promoted and done well.
This is a decision that HSV have to make,” Eberl said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). “Daniel has to face the competition. Daniel Peretz has an outstanding character and will fight. Of course, our intention is for him to play as many games as possible.”
Peretz is in a tough spot, but — for now — seems willing to stick it out. January, though, will be the real test for how committed Peretz is to attempting to make this work at Hamburg.
Bayern Munich is back in Bundesliga action after an international break and just before the Champions League kicks off.
