“The time at Bayern did not leave him unscathed. He needs basic trust to be able to perform 100 percent,” Yakin continued.

FC Bayern had signed Sommer to replace the injured Manuel Neuer, but the Swiss player was never undisputed in Munich.

“Yann was pulled through a slingshot. He didn’t deserve it. He became a victim of a mechanism that only happens at Bayern,” said Yakin.

As part of the national team, the coach encountered a crushed summer: “Of course I spoke to him when he came to the national team. That wasn’t the Yann I know him. He was under extreme pressure at Bayern, which he ultimately withstood has.”

Yakin: “Gnawed him”

The keeper, who is now under contract with Inter Milan, felt sporting support. Nevertheless, “all the criticism would have gnawed at him,” said Yakin.

“I didn’t understand them. You knew Yann and knew who to get. He showed what he could do. And he never complained. The time at Bayern wasn’t easy for Yann, he struggled with that “said the former Bundesliga player.

Sommer was criticized, especially after leaving the Champions League, and his height (1.83 meters) was regularly discussed.

After only seven months, Sommer moved on to Italy.
