this season as a goalkeeping coach for the youth side.
The former Bayer Leverkusen man claimed that his career is still not over after he played a part in the game against Die Roten. The player insisted that he is still training hard with the squad and preparing for the Champions League
final in three weeks time.
The goalkeeper added that if Bayern win the Champions League by defeating http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 in the final, it would certainly be a perfect farewell for him.
“My career is still not over, there are three weeks left until the season finale. We need to maintain our full focus. I always wanted to finish at the highest level and if we were to win the [Champions League] cup on May 19, it
would be the perfect farewell,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
On the other hand, the player insisted that his career has not ended abruptly and added that he already had in mind when he had to hang up his boots. Butt insisted that he is excited to take over his new job as the goalkeeping
coach with the youth side and has admitted that he will always relish the time he has spent at Bayern.
“The end of my career has not been abrupt, I've been able to prepare myself. I'll move on immediately after the season. I'm really looking forward to my new http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 and I will always remember the great four years I've had here as a
player,” he concluded.
