Werder Speak On Klose's Bayern Move
Werder bosses have finally admitted defeat in their bid to keep
hold of Miroslav Klose.
Werder-boss Jürgen Born said: The decision was made on Monday.
Munich came to us with an improved offer which matched our
demands.
"Apart from that we feel we need some peace. That goes for Bayern,
Werder and the national team. Perhaps weve done everyone a
favour.
Bremen do not have a replacement for Klose ready and waiting he
stressed.
Trainer Thomas Schaaf revealed, It is a shame that our time
together is at an end. Of course we would have loved to have had
Miro here for the start of the season.
"But we are doing the right thing, so that our team can have a
disruption-free start to the new season. Wed like to thank Miro
for the successful work he has done here.
Manager Klaus Allofs regrets Kloses departure but sees no urgent
need for a replacement.
We showed last season that we could perform without Miro," he
said.
"We are well equipped in attack with Markus Rosenberg, Hugo
Almeida, Aaron Hunt as well as youngsters Kevin Schindler and
Martin Harnik.
"Also Ivan Klasnic will return. We are watching the market, but are
under no pressure.
