In an interview with Abendzeitung, Michael Reschke how much Uli Hoeneß and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge interfere in transfers.
The former Bayern technical director offered some insight into his time at the Bavarian club between 2014 and 2017.
“During my time at the club, Hoeneß and Rummenigge were the main contacts for transfer ideas.They didn't know the international player market inside out, and it wasn't their job.
"If you approached them both, presented a clear sporting conviction and a sensible financial concept, and backed it up with compelling videos and reports, you always received backing from them.
"Of course there were questions and discussions, but neither of them was ever an obstacle.
"I remember well discussions about the transfers of Kimmich and Coman, whom neither of them was obviously familiar with.
"There were also big question marks. But when Marco Neppe and I presented a clear concept, we could definitely convince them,” he added.
