"It was Lennart Karl's first time at the fan club, being such a young player. A young fan asked Karl if it would be a dream to play for Real Madrid or another club, and Karl said, 'Yes, of course, that's a big dream.' I don't think we should take this statement too seriously. 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 17. Of course, many fans were a little insulted, but he's allowed to say how he feels. In the end, he apologized to the bosses at Bayern Munich."
Lennart Karl said that Real Madrid could be a dream club after answering a fan's question at a Bayern fan club event. The comment prompted concern among some fans but was described as a minor worry by Christian Falk, who emphasized club traditions and the informal nature of fan club appearances. Karl previously trained in front of Real Madrid scouts at age ten and said the Bernabeu left an impression. Karl apologized to Bayern leaders, acknowledged the mistake, and underwent talks with the club. He trained hard during the winter break and remains a 17-year-old prospect continuing his season against VfL Wolfsburg. The episode is part of a young player's learning process rather than a sign of disloyalty.
