Eberl is eager to see the new players on the squad prove themselves under head coach Vincent Kompany. \"We made the transfers we wanted with Nene (Brown), Ismael (Saibari), and Bara (Sapoko Ndiaye). We also had a few departures. It’s a fresh start now,\" Eberl stated, according to a report by @iMiaSanMia. Despite the absence of Lennart Karl, Jamal Musiala, and Serge Gnabry, Bayern Munich is well-prepared to face off against Borussia Dortmund in the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup. The depth added by Eberl during the offseason should prove beneficial for the team throughout the season. As the new season begins, the question remains: is Bayern Munich truly ready?",
