Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has found himself being slightly mocked by DFB managing director Andreas Rettig. This is due to his comments about Florian Wirtz’s move to Liverpool.

SportBILD cover comments from him today in which he backs Wirtz to eventually shine at Liverpool.

He’s yet to live up to that price tag, with just one assist in ten appearances so far. That has, naturally, led to questions being asked.
