  • Bayern Munich have started the new Bundesliga season with two wins from two games.
  • "You can only be on target," said Bayern sporting director Max Eberl after the 2-0 win against Freiburg.
  • "There was a lot of excitement during the transfer period," said Eberl. He is satisfied with the squad. After the international break, Bayern continue their league campaign against Holstein Kiel.

After starting with six points from their two opening games in the Bundesliga, FC Bayern Munich will go into the first international break of the new season satisfied, even without leading the table. "Two games, two wins, you can only be on target," said sporting director Max Eberl after the German record champions' 2-0 home win against SC Freiburg at the end of matchday 2.

"It's all good," summarized Eberl, especially as the opening round of the DFB Cup had also been successfully overcome. "Heidenheim are top of the table, they deserve it with their 4-0 home win. But who is top of the table after the second matchday is not so decisive," said Eberl. Apart from Heidenheim and Bayern, only RB Leipzig started with two wins.

"There was a lot of excitement in the transfer period"

The successful start to the season has initially ensured calm in Munich, especially as the transfer period has now been completed and the squad is in place for the first half of the season at least. "There was a lot of excitement during the transfer period," said Eberl. He is satisfied with the squad, which still includes French winger Kingsley Coman. A last-minute sale of the 28-year-old did not materialize. "King is staying. He has a contract with us. Nothing has happened," said Eberl.
