FC Bayern and Marco Neppe end their cooperation

FC Bayern and its technical director Marco Neppe have agreed to end their cooperation by mutual consent after 10 successful years. Neppe joined FC Bayern from Bayer Leverkusen on 1 July 2014 and most recently held the position of technical director.

FC Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen: "I would like to thank Marco Neppe for this long cooperation. We celebrated many successes during this period, and under Marco Neppe we discovered outstanding talents such as Alphonso Davies and Jamal Musiala, who have matured into world-class players in Munich. He was an important factor in squad planning and, not least because of his excellent network, also in the completion of many transfers. We wish Marco Neppe all the best for the future."

 

Marco Neppe: "I would like to thank FC Bayern for the trust, support and, above all, the opportunity I was given here. It was a challenging, exciting and successful time, with the 2020 treble as the highlight. I wish FC Bayern and its wonderful fans maximum success for the future. FC Bayern will remain part of my history and I am proud of that."

Neppe, 37, started out at FC Bayern as a scout. After three years, he was promoted to head of the department, and from December 2021 he held the position of technical director. Since 2014, Bayern have won nine Bundesliga titles, the DFB Cup three times and the German Supercup six times. In 2020, they celebrated a historic sextuple year with victories in the Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup.
