Bayern boss Niko Kovac has said that he is looking forward for Perisic join Bayern.
Asked about Perisic, Bayern head coach Kovac told reporters following Monday’s 3-1 win over Energie Cottbus in the DFB-Pokal: “He [Ivan Perisic] was at the medical check today. And if all this goes well and the last papers are sent back and forth [with Inter], then he will become one of our players.”
“Regardless of our transfers, there are other clubs that buy players. And I don’t like the way these [players] are handled to some extent when you put them in the second or third category,” Kovac said.
“We should respect each of them. That’s what we stand for and that’s what I stand for. And that’s what I expect from everyone else. Because it’s always easy to criticise someone.
“First you don’t get this player, then you don’t get the other, and then you have an X, Y or Z solution. I don’t think that’s nice. That’s my personal opinion. Maybe some people share this opinion with me.”
Speaking about his team’s 3-0 win, he said,
“My team did a good job,” Kovac said. “We could have retained possession a bit more in the second half but taken altogether I’m satisfied. Energie gave it everything, it was a great spectacle.
“We dominated possession. strangled our opponents but had to watch out for counters again and again. The final pass in the last third must be more precise. We could have done better.”
