"Former Bayern Munich club president Uli Hoeneß has been making the rounds in the headlines over the past week for a plethora of things he said on a number of different topics while he spoke at Jürgen Höller's "Power Days" event at Munich's Olympic Hall. He also spoke at the 'Sport Marke Medien' conference a day after the 'Power Days' event."
"Part of his discussion revolved around manager Vincent Kompany and how Hoeneß and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge had consulted Manchester City, and former Bayern, manager Pep Guardiola before they officially hired the Belgian. Guardiola gave his vote of confidence and also added that he feels Kompany would one day succeed him as manager of Manchester City, where Kompany previously played and worked under Guardiola."
""I've said often enough that I'm not here to comment on Uli Hoeneß' statements. I have a lot of respect for him but I won't be doing that. In football you can never think too far ahead. I'm 100% focused on what we can achieve with Bayern - I just want to live in the present. I have zero thoughts on other stuff, only tomorrow's game and my team," he stressed (via @iMiaSanMia)."
Uli Hoeneß spoke publicly at Munich events and made blunt comments on multiple topics. Hoeneß and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge consulted Pep Guardiola before appointing Vincent Kompany as Bayern manager. Guardiola reportedly endorsed Kompany and suggested Kompany could one day succeed him at Manchester City, where Kompany formerly played and worked. Vincent Kompany declined to engage with Hoeneß's remarks, expressed respect for Hoeneß, and emphasized he will not comment on those statements. Kompany stressed total focus on Bayern, living in the present, and concentrating on the next game and his team.
