>FC Bayern and SpVgg Unterhaching have reached an agreement over a cooperation in the area of promoting talent. The concrete implementation of the deal is currently being reviewed. Unterhaching rely heavily on youth development like no other German professional club
>The idea of a cooperation has been around for a long time – Campus boss Jochen Sauer and sporting director Christoph Freund have intensified discussions in recent months. With Max Eberl joining Bayern, the project has gained another advocate. Bayern talents that are not yet ready for the first team but are too good for the youth or the second team will no longer have to be loaned abroad in the future – but could instead recommend themselves at Unterhaching. That would take the development of top talent to a new level, especially if Unterhaching manage to get promoted to the 2. Bundesliga.
>An “answer to the transfer madness” – that’s what Uli Hoeneß called the FC Bayern Campus at its inauguration in 2017, which cost over €70m. Discovering, promoting and developing the club’s own talents instead of *always* buying expensive players – an approach that is both commendable and sensible, and yet so complicated to implement. The management of Unterhaching and Bayern have a good connection with each other; Club bosses Uli Hoeneß and Manfred Schwabl appreciate each other
