FC Bayern will be visiting Mainz on Saturday evening. In advance, the topic of Mazraoui dominates the headlines. You can read what coach Tuchel says about this in the live ticker here.
On Friday morning, FC Bayern officially took a stance on the behavior of their right-back Noussair Mazraoui. The Moroccan caused a stir last weekend by sharing a controversial Instagram video that spoke of Palestine’s hoped-for “victory” in the conflict with Israel.
Because Mazraoui has now credibly assured in a conversation with those responsible at Bayern, according to the statement, that he “as a peace-loving person resolutely rejects terror and war”, he remains part of the squad and will not receive any further punishment.
The 25-year-old will still miss the weekend due to an injury. The case will still be a topic at the matchday press conference. Just like a possible comeback from Manuel Neuer. Here you can find the most important statements from Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel in the live ticker.
11:06 a.m – On the Mazraoui case: “On the one hand, I’m happy about the clear statement. I stand by the content 100 percent. Of course, I spoke to Nous. I don’t want to say anything about the content. I also spoke to Daniel (the Israeli substitute goalkeeper Peretz , editor). It is our duty of care to hear how he is doing.” How do the two of them treat each other? “The cabin is always a place where you work peacefully and amicably towards a common goal. It is a place where you overcome conflicts.”
11:03 a.m – The first question is directed towards Manuel Neuer and the ailing Joshua Kimmich. “With Jo we have to wait a little bit, it will be very close with Mainz.” To Neuer: “We also have Manu in training. That’s the sensationally good news that he’s back in training.” But Tuchel also says: “We decided that Ulle (Sven Ulreich, editor) will be in goal against Mainz and also against Istanbul to give Manu a few more days of training.”
11:00 a.m – Tuchel takes his place on the podium, the PK begins.
10:58 a.m – For Tuchel himself, the game with the 05ers will be special, as he led the Mainz A youth team to the championship title in 2009 and shortly afterwards became Bundesliga coach there.
10:55 a.m – National team colleague Serge Gnabry also returned to training this week after breaking his forearm. A game against Mainz probably comes too early for him.
10:51 a.m – Another exciting personality alongside Mazraoui is Manuel Neuer. Is the national goalkeeper finally celebrating his comeback after his skiing accident last winter?
10:46 a.m – Welcome to the live ticker of the FC Bayern matchday press conference. From 11 a.m. you can read the most important statements from coach Thomas Tuchel before the game in Mainz (Saturday, 6:30 p.m. in the t-online live ticker).
