Bayern Munich CEO Rummenigge is upset about Timo Werner statements

Bayern Munich CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge is reportedly upset about RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner's statements that he does not want to join the Bavarians, according to Christian Falk of Sports Bild.  Werner has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich and several Premer League clubs, including Liverpool. In his latest interview, Werner said he'd prefer to move abroad if he leaves the Red Bulls. "It's just that the challenge in another league would appeal to me a little more than a transfer within the Bundesliga," he told German daily Bild in an interview published on Saturday. "Bayern are a great club. We don't need to talk about it. And Hansi Flick has proven this season that he's a really good coach. But if a transfer should ever become an issue, I would rather move abroad than to Bayern. It's just that the challenge in another league would appeal to me a little more than a transfer within the Bundesliga."  However, those comments come as an upset for Rummenigge.  "I am actually amazed at nothing, but I have never seen a player make such a statement in response to public rumors," said Rummenigge.
