On September 3 at 8:30 p.m. CEST, VfL Osnabrück will face Bayern Munich in the first round of the DFB-Pokal. Ahead of the match, Bayern's sporting director Freund attended a press conference.

Today is the final day of the transfer window. I wanted to ask whether changes are still possible today. For example, we discussed Serge Gnabry's situation extensively before. As a second question: has Bayern's youth academy become a source of revenue for the club?

Freund: Regarding the final day of the transfer window, the transfer period has closed in Germany and the major leagues. However, some leagues will keep their windows open longer. For context, we will not be signing any new players. That means there won't be much activity today. Regarding player departures, there could still be changes. As I mentioned, some markets have longer transfer windows, so not everything will be concluded today. Therefore, some departures are still possible. However, we will not be bringing in new players. We've always said that. We are very satisfied with our current squad and delighted with our current staff.

Regarding the youth academy, fundamentally we want to help many young players develop and reach their maximum potential. If we can advance their development at every stage, that's even better. Not every player will ultimately become a Bayern player, of course. But if we can develop many players for other leagues or in the Bundesliga in important roles, that's also very positive. I believe we've created many success stories over the past year or two.

Many young players have developed well and had good careers outside Bayern. Yes, the best and highest success would be for players to succeed at Bayern and actually get playing time. However, it's equally important that we develop more players to higher levels and facilitate good transfers for them. Over the past year and a half to two years, we've done very well in this area. Yes, if some players ultimately can secure a place at Bayern, that's the best outcome. But our goal is to continually improve the academy's level. This way, players who leave will reach even higher levels.

You just said there could still be some departures before the final day. I didn't see Serge Gnabry at training yesterday. Does that mean discussions about him are progressing? Or is there something else? Also, regarding Hiroki Itô, there have been reports recently that Ajax is interested in him. What's his current situation?

Freund: Regarding Serge Gnabry, his physical condition is good. In the days before the final transfer day, we decided together with Serge Gnabry himself that he would train individually for a day or two. That's because there are actual ongoing discussions. But generally speaking, his physical condition is good and he's fit for training and matches.

Regarding Hiroki Itô, there is currently no urgent situation. I've seen the relevant reports, of course. But as of now, nothing significant has developed. Our current plan is for Itô to remain at Bayern.

Cardozo suffered a shoulder injury recently during a Bayern II match. He was taken to hospital. What do the test results show? Do you have an estimate for how long he'll be out?

Freund: Unfortunately, it's bad luck. He fell and dislocated his shoulder. He'll have surgery today. He's looking at three to four months out. We're hoping the surgery goes well. I believe the procedure is scheduled for around 2 p.m.
