Oliver Kahn was released from FC Bayern almost a year ago. Since then he has probably no longer had any contact with Uli Hoeneß. Now the goalkeeper legend appeared to be forgiving.

Oliver Kahn was dismissed as CEO of FC Bayern Munich in May 2023. According to his own statements, he has no longer had any contact with Uli Hoeneß since then. In an interview with “Sport Bild”, the former CEO of the German soccer record champions was conciliatory – he believes a normal relationship with the honorary president is possible.

Your own football club? For Oliver Kahn “the next logical step”

Kahn cannot imagine returning to operational football business as a board member or in any other role. “Basically you shouldn’t rule anything out in football, but that’s not an issue for me at the moment,” he said. On the other hand, he finds the idea of ​​owning a club interesting. “For me, this is a logical next step and a very exciting topic that we shouldn’t just leave to others,” said Kahn. “The football of the future should not only be dominated by people who have never been on a pitch and have no real connection to the game. An interesting example is David Beckham.”

The former England international is co-owner of Inter Miami of Major League Soccer. “He did a lot right in Miami and created something completely new, and no one will deny that there is a great footballer doing everything for football. I like that,” said Kahn. “In general, I would like to see more ambitious former players fill important positions in football and take on responsibility.”
