'I am very grateful' - Nagelsmann reveals 'valuable' chats with Bayern predecessor Flick

The former RB Leipzig manager says he "exchanged views" with the new Germany head coach after replacing him at Allianz Arena

Julian Nagelsmann has revealed that he has enjoyed "valuable" chats with his Bayern Munich predecessor Hansi Flick, who he is "very grateful" to for giving him advice.

Nagelsmann was drafted in to replace Flick at Allianz Arena at the end of the 2020-21 campaign, having spent the previous two years of his career at RB Leipzig.

Flick delivered a whole host of major trophies in the same time frame with Bayern, and has been on hand to pass down some of his wisdom to the man who will be expected to usher in a new era of success this season.
