#Bayern Munich

It is NOT TRUE: Bayern want to sell Leon Goretzka in January. But, it is true that the Germany international wants to stay at the Allianz Arena. The 30-year-old sees a chance to stay at Bayern Munich - he'd love to stay at the club. However, as everyone knows, he's one of the top earners at about €17m-18m [£14.9m-15.8m] gross. Bayern have made a decision to talk to the midfielder and his agents next year about a new contract, and then they will see if he's willing to lower his earnings. If so, there's a chance for Leon Goretzka to stay.

It is TRUE: Ibrahima Konate wants his future sorted shortly. Konate knows that Liverpool would like to sell him if he's not prepared to sign a new contract, so he has to decide now. Bayern have said they're interested, so it could be difficult for them if the Frenchman decides to sign a new contract at Liverpool. That's because they're already set to lose another option in Marc Guehi, who is very close, at the moment, to signing for Liverpool.

We are always afraid to promote young players and that's the problem in Germany. Just unleash them. There are no arguments at all [against calling Karl for the national team]. There's never promotion too early and there's never a national team too early. If I can achieve something, I have to go straight on this path,
