During the pre-match press conference, Bayern Munich manager shared his expectations for the new season, discussed Musiala's condition, and commented on Eberl's contract extension.

In the Bundesliga, you were a relatively young manager, but now that you're in your third season as head coach, you're considered an "experienced veteran." With all the experience you've accumulated, do you still feel any nerves or concerns before the season starts? How are the players feeling as we approach the first match?

I feel the same as I did in my first season as a manager. Ultimately, I'm confident we will be successful. However, I know that in football nothing is certain, and everything starts from scratch.

In my mind, I've reset all the previous championships. I have to prove myself again. But this isn't pressure for me—quite the opposite. It's strong motivation that gives me a lot of energy.

Tomorrow's match against Stuttgart will be challenging. A new season means new opportunities. We need to prepare meticulously for the season ahead. I'm very excited about the new season starting.

How do you view this season's title race? Looking at the team's best performance from last season, are there reasons to be optimistic about winning the championship? What's your assessment of rivals like Dortmund, Leverkusen, Leipzig, and Stuttgart?

As I mentioned earlier, everything starts from scratch, at least in my mind. It's not my job to predict first, second, third, or fourth place. My only wish is for the team to maintain the good performance from last season and, if possible, improve upon it.

While we'll see Stuttgart's strength firsthand on Saturday, I can say with confidence that Dortmund is a strong team, and last season many competitors worked to strengthen their stability. The fight for the championship doesn't depend only on direct confrontations with strong teams. It also depends on everyone's ability to earn points against other competitors. While I cannot predict the final outcome at this moment, based on the information I have, Dortmund will continue to be competitive and I wouldn't be surprised if Stuttgart maintains their form.

How do you respond to Eberl's contract extension? How do you assess your collaboration with him?

Throughout the season, I won't make many public comments about contract extensions for my senior management like Freund or Eberl, but I have been honest about our collaboration.

Just as Eberl has faced difficult times, I have also faced challenges. Whenever such times come, we set aside distractions and fully commit to our work. When help is needed, we support each other honestly.

I've always said that the working environment is important for a manager. I'm fortunate that Bayern Munich provides me with the best working environment. This positive atmosphere is inseparable from Eberl and Freund.

When faced with difficulties, we don't just react passively. Instead, we learn from them, find ways to overcome challenges, and make the team stronger. Any capable organization will become stronger with such an approach.

Football isn't always smooth sailing. I experienced this during my time as manager at Bayern Munich. As a head coach, I feel very fortunate to have such a working environment.

How is Musiala doing? How did he feel during this week's training? When do you plan to have him back in the squad for the match?

In general, his physical condition is good. While he was able to participate in full training with the team today, he won't be in the squad for tomorrow's match against Stuttgart. He's in the final stage of his recovery, and his body is responding well. After this, he can return to the team and participate normally. All current medical decisions are made in consultation with our medical staff, and his recovery is progressing well at the moment.
