A report from Bild indicates that Bayern Munich has hired
Florian Zahn away from Chelsea. The move reportedly occurred in January without
much fanfare. It comes at a curious time – right before Bayern’s clash with
Chelsea in the Champions League.
Zahn is from Germany and had worked for Chelsea for four and
a half years. He was in charge of their scouting in Central and Eastern Europe
during his time there.
Previously, he also worked with the youth teams at 1. FC
Kaiserslautern. In light of his experience, Zahn should know the area pretty
well.
At Bayern, Zahn will work with Sporting Director Hassan Salihamidzic
and Head Scout Marco Neppe. He will be tasked with helping young player
transition from the U16/U17 levels all the way to the pros.
His focus will be on finding the top talents that can be
developed in such a way, so that they ideally can make it all the way to the
first team.
