00:00As you said, a lot has happened. Four important players have retired.
00:07Delkay, Manu, Toni, Thomas. Four players who have a great history with the DFB.
00:15A great history with their clubs and a lot of success with the clubs.
00:19We also have DFB fans who all played a very important role during the European Championship.
00:25It wasn't easy for the players. It was very transparent, very open, very clear.
00:30Fair from everyone.
00:33Emotional conversations, because you connect something with the players during the tournament.
00:38But in the end I respect and accept the decision and I understand all four of them.
00:44But I also said that the door is closed for none of the players.
00:47If we need them and deliver them excellent performances and they want to,
00:52then the door is never completely closed.
