Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain meet in a match at the International Champions Cup 2018. The match will take place on Saturday at 15:00 at the “Worthersee Stadion” in Klagenfurt. Niko Kovac prepares for his debut on the “Bavarian” bench.
The match in the International Champions Cup will mark Nico Kovac’s debut on Bayern’s bench, which he played as a player from 2001 to 2003. During that period, Nico scored 34 points in the Bundesliga, managing to score three goals. After going into the palmartes cup with Eintracht Frankfurt, it remains to be seen if the 46-year-old technician will continue Jupp Heynckes’ system or implement his own ideas in the “Bavarian” style of play. Although he will not be able to count on James Rodriguez, Corentin Tolisso and Thomas Muller, who are on vacation after the World Cup, the German champion has a pretty valuable lot at his disposal.
Notable absences will be found in the camp of the French, who will not be able to count on Neymar and Kylian Mbappe. But in turn, the Parisians have a debut on the technical bench. Thomas Tuchel, who prepared Borussia Dortmund between June 2015 and May 2017, took over the team in mid-May. In the second round, Tuchel won one trophy, the cup in 2017 after 2-1 with Frankfurt. Gianluigi Buffon, the one who left Juventus, after 17 years, will also play in the PSG gate. Buffon likened a one-year contract with the option to extend another season.
