A week before public proclamationthat Boateng would not get a new contract, there was an internal meeting about his future. “Brazzo” had already announced its decision there. The central defender is injured too often and does not play consistently enough, so he can leave. Flick did not share these arguments, however, Boateng is very important to him. In addition, he does not want to lose any other pillar of his team after Thiago (30) and David Alaba (28). The next day there was a conversation between Boateng, Salihamidzic and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge (65), in which the chairman of the board asked Boateng not to hold talks with other clubs in the coming weeks. Rummenigge knows about the standing of the ex-national player at Flick – the end of the contract had not yet been decided for him.
