Nürnberg Youth Chief Michael Wiesinger Poised To Join Bayern Campus After FCN Confirms Exit

Bayern plans changes at its academy to relieve director Jochen Sauer.

Overview

  • 1. FC Nürnberg sport director Joti Chatzialexiou confirmed Wiesinger will leave and said no compensation will be sought, while the exact timing remains under discussion.
  • Multiple outlets report Wiesinger has an agreement to take a senior role at Bayern’s Campus in the summer, with July 1 cited as the targeted start date.
  • Earlier reports suggested a fee might be due because of Wiesinger’s contract, but Nürnberg’s stance disputes that a payment will be required.
  • At Bayern, Wiesinger is expected to support Jochen Sauer and bring his Nürnberg development record, with coverage indicating Campus oversight could shift toward sport director Christoph Freund.
  • The move raises questions about current Campus leader Markus Weinzierl, who says the role is trending toward contract and agent management and that he prefers to stay close to the sporting side.
