Christoph Freund emphasizes that Leon Goretzka is 'an important part' of Bayern Munich's squad
"Leon has played a lot of games [this season]. We know what we have in him,"
"He's also an important personality in our team. He's always helped the team and is crucial to the squad. He has a lot of experience and won many titles, and he brings that to the table. He's an important part of our team when he's on the pitch."
Leon Goretzka approaches the final six months of his Bayern Munich contract with no renewal talks currently apparent. The club's sporting management, led by Christoph Freund and Max Eberl, initially phased him out during their first summer transfer window and head coach Vincent Kompany omitted him from the matchday squad for the season opener. Goretzka has since worked his way back into the regular midfield rotation and now features more consistently. Public statements from club figures emphasize his experience, leadership and importance on the pitch. The ultimate indication of his valuation by management will be revealed by any contract decision.
