Munich – Loaner Alvaro Odriozola is about to make his compulsory debut with FC Bayern Will head coach Hansi Flick put him directly in the starting eleven against Schalke 04?
Pep Guardiola caused a sensation on 30 August 2014. Xabi Alonso, fresh from Real Madrid, was promoted directly to the starting line-up by the then FC Bayern coach in an away game against Schalke – and surpassed. Just two days earlier, he passed the medical check in Munich
Also compatriot and Madrid loaner Álvaro Odriozola could make his debut on Saturday against Schalke 04. But in a home game and with a little more lead time than Alonso. By the way, he’s a buddy of Odriozola’s and made a change of Bayern palatable to him.
According to SPORT1 information, however, Odriozola’s starting eleven debut will not (yet) become anything. For the time being, the legal defender is to take a seat on the bench. The 24-year-old Spaniard has been training with the team since Wednesday, although he proved his speed and good fitness during training.
