Ranked 16th just above the red zone, the club is having a complicated season and started 2025 with two defeats, therefore a slap in the face of the Bundesliga leader.
Asked on ESPN’s microphone after the 5-0 defeat suffered in Bavaria against Vincent Kompany’s Bayern, Andrej Kramaric indulged in an explosive interview. The Croatian international had a lot on his heart and emptied his bag: “I don’t even want to talk about the match, because for me it was clear that it was going to happen. That’s the image of the whole season… this f***ing season,” fumed the 33-year-old.
“I’m going to be honest. And I’m still soft because if I tell the truth and certain things that concern me about the club, I will probably receive the biggest punishment in the history of the Bundesliga”, continues the one who had confronted the Red Devils during the last World Cup.
Big internal turmoil
Hoffenheim underwent a major management reshuffle this summer, which notably resulted in the dismissal of general manager Alexander Rosen who had been at the club for a very long time.
-“We are investing so much money for nothing. There is a danger that we will be relegated with a team of good players, but obviously nothing is working. This is the first time in my football career that I have felt this way. If anyone “I’m not going to change that, I’ll try to change it,” Kramaric punctuates.
For the record, Alexander Rosen’s replacement, Andreas Schicker (arrived from Sturm Graz in Austria) fired head coach Pellegrino Matarazzo in November, and called on Christian Ilzer (from… Sturm Graz) to replace him . But so far he has failed to turn things around.
