FC Bayern Munich board member for sport Max Eberl has not had an easy job since taking the position in 2024. With repeated rumors of having had his job position at risk during his current stint at Bayern Munich, his performance is being constantly scrutinized.
The board member for sport spoke candidly about the pressure of such a job and the challenges he has faced over the past two years (ZDF via @iMiaSanMia). “I was under the microscope. At one point or another, I would have liked a bit more protection.
But I know how big Bayern are. You cannot prepare yourself for Bayern,” declared Eberl.
The comment about having liked more protection hints at moments where he would have liked to have more backing, but Eberl surely also acknowledges how high the expectations at a club like Bayern are and how “you have to dive straight in.”
Surely his work will be seen in a different light depending on the results achieved by the team this season. Having already clinched the Bundesliga, the Bavarians have in a critical semifinal return leg against Paris Saint-Germain and a DFB-Pokal final against VfB Stuttgart, 2 matches that will make or break their season.
