""Don't forget that the young forward played in front of the scouts at Real Madrid at the Bernabeu when he was just 10 years old. Who wouldn't be impressed as well? "But he has Bayern Munich in his heart, and he knows about the chance he has. He was training very hard with his own coach during the winter break in Germany.""
""He's a professional in the squad for Vincent Kompany; a proper player like the others, not just an up-and-coming talent," Falk went on to add. "Don't forget that he's already set to get a new contract when he turns 18 on February 22 - it will extend automatically to 2029. "Plus, we're aware that there are ongoing talks with his agent, Michael Ballack, to extend to 2031 with a high salary. Ultimately, he's very confident at Bayern Munich, and he's going to extend his stay"
Lennart Karl, a 17-year-old Bayern forward, admitted it would be a 'dream' to play for Real Madrid and subsequently apologised to club hierarchy for the comment. Bayern and club sources attribute the remark to youth and limited media training, noting his senior career is only beginning and he has yet to complete his Abitur. Karl trained intensely during the winter break and previously impressed scouts at Real Madrid aged 10. Bayern plan for Karl long-term: his contract will automatically extend to summer 2029 when he turns 18, and talks with agent Michael Ballack aim to extend terms to 2031 with a high salary. Karl is viewed as a professional in Vincent Kompany's squad.
