Boateng and Alaba could both be set to leave Bayern Munich. The Director of Football told 'Sky Sports' that they want to keep them and opened the door for one last attempt at renewals.
"David is an excellent person and a brilliant football player. He is very popular within the team. David should assume some responsibility and decide what is important to him", said manager Hansi Flick.
On Boateng he said: "It is very early to make decisions. We will meet with him and his agent at a reasonable time and take a fair decision for everyone". Only time will tell as to whether the two key players will stay put.
