00:00With Thiago, I know him from Bayern, we have a really good relationship and when he retired,

00:07he had to retire, so it was, I think, for every player who are in this situation, it's a bad time,

00:15so a bad moment and we spoke about that and I asked him, if you want to have a look to see

00:22how it works, so in the pre-season, in preparation, maybe for your next step, what you want to do,

00:31you are always welcome, so when I think, when I said this, you can see that something happens

00:39with him and you know, you can see it also now on the pitch, I'm not sure what he wants to do, but

00:47I think it will be a good option to make the license and then see how the role is going,
