Moderator discusses the use of a "hammer" - May he become the unexpected Bayern coach?

In the job hunt, Bayern has met obstacles from notable candidates like Xabi Alonso (42/Leverkusen), Julian Nagelsmann (36/DFB), and Ralf Rangnick (65/Austria).

Meanwhile, other potential hires such as Unai Emery (52/Aston Villa), Roberto De Zerbi (44/Brighton), and Roger Schmidt (57/Benfica Lisbon) are content where they are or inclined towards the Premier League for employment like Julen Lopetegui (57/probably at West Ham).

How steadfast are these pledges, though?

Falk elaborates, "Max Eberl strongly desires him. De Zerbi previously affirmed his devotion to Brighton. However, it's not a straightforward matter. He's facing challenges with the boss there. I think Bayern is applying more pressure now."

This revelation in the broadcast leaves the studio amazed. Presenter Filip Thiel calls it a "hammer."

"Eberl had him on the list from the get-go. He was a backup option, first with Alonso, and then with Rangnick. Eberl couldn't push this perspective through. But he has his desired candidate," Falk added.

However, De Zerbi had expressed his sense of contentment a month prior: "There isn't a club that can shift my mind."

De Zerbi reaffirmed this promise a week ago. "I want to stay with Brighton. I adore the city, the club, the fans. I even told the fans at a meet-and-greet that I wouldn't leave if I'm pleased - I want to maintain my passion," stated the coach.

Will De Zerbi do a reversal due to Bayern's persistence?
