Having arrived at Bayern Munich from Manchester City in the summer of 2011, Jérôme Boateng has been living a real love affair with the Bavarian club ever since. A very great career for the defender of the Mannschaft, marked by ups but also lows. Numerous injuries and a very febrile level of play at times disrupted the course of the Berlin native’s career.
Despite this, the Munich colossus has never given up and is struggling to retain a starting spot in Hansi Flick’s squad. While he almost joined Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2018, and Juventus in 2019, the Herta-trained player said he was very happy to play his tenth season with Bayern in an interview with a kicker.
“At the end of the day, I’m happy to be with FC Bayern all the time. I’m enjoying football again.” But while his contract expires at the end of the season, he does not see himself leaving the ship. “I can imagine. My kids feel at home here. With Hansi Flick as a coach and this team, it’s a lot of fun.”
In the event of a non-extension, Boateng still has a little idea of what might attract him. “Another culture. I like to learn new things and I don’t need to be in the same place all the time. The United States, Asia, or even another European country. But it’s not necessary for now.
