Rummenigge About Kimmich: I am convinced that he may vaccinate promptly

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has expressed itself on Sunday morning at Bildtv to Causa Joshua Kimmich. The former Bavaria Boss was surprised by Kimmich s refusal to vaccinate - but also broke a lance for the Bayern star.

Basically, I want to say to Kimmich first: He is perhaps the player of the Bundesliga, who has a model function in many things. I know him as great people, which also shows his We Kick Corona initiative, says Rummenigge in the broadcast . Of course, that was surprising that he was not vaccinated. That has now led to a discussion.

The criticism of Kimmich, he was irresponsible, wanted to leave Rummenigge so. What Joshua is doing is very responsible. He wants to wait for things like the long-term effect first and he is tested every other day, says Rummenigge, who still stated: As a role model, it would still be better, he would be vaccinated.

Rummenigge assumes that Kimmich will soon change his mind. I am convinced that he may vaccinate promptly. He is a totally responsible person and player. We can be very glad that he is part of these two teams in our country.

FC Bayern fulfilled his duty

The former Bavaria board of executors had a stir in the spring in the vaccine debate himself with the demand to vaccinate football professionals of the Bundesliga earlier. I stated in February this year that it would be wise to vaccinate footballing early - as a role model for everyone else. I was terribly criticized. Now it has turned something.

FC Bayern does not necessarily look in the enforcement of a nationwide vaccine rate in its employees. I basically believe that FC Bayern has made aware of it. But it does not help if players have concerns. There we turn in the circle. Rummenigge himself had been vaccinated twice, because I want to go to the restaurant or the stadium without having to test me.

Rummyigge: Paccapment would be a matter for politics

A general vaccination obligation for all professionals would not introduce Rummenigge about football as such. This is clear thing about politics.

The vaccPvint is not on football, but in politics. Through the fact that one or the other is not vaccinated at Bavaria, we now have a discussion. But that should not be introduced about football, says Rummenigge.
