+++ 13:18: Rolfes gives a positive assessment of the training camp 💬✔️ +++
In his closing remarks, Simon Rolfes spoke of “excellent conditions. The quality we found here at the hotel and on the training ground was exceptionally good. It’s definitely an option to come back here next year – we’ve already put out feelers.” Commenting on the training sessions, the managing director sport said: “The squad trained very well and with great intensity; the atmosphere was excellent. It was a successful week for team cohesion and has laid the perfect foundation for the season ahead.”
We’d like to echo those sentiments and thank the Spa & GolfResort Weimarer Land for six brilliant days. See you tomorrow at the season launch at the BayArena.

The final training session in Blankenhain is over. It was another intense session, particularly during the final practice match involving three teams. Afterwards, Carles Martínez gathered the players, coaches and staff back on the pitch and thanked them for the past few days. Now it’s time to pack our bags, say our goodbyes – and then focus fully on the season launch.

The final hours here at the training camp in the Weimarer Land have begun.
