Nagelsmann was seen holidaying with Wurzenberger this summer, taking a yacht vacation in Spain’s Ibiza. Wurzenberger had been covering Bayern Munich for the last two years, after previously reporting on another German club, Werder Bremen. Most of the Bayern players know Wurzenberger well.
She recently interviewed their new signing, Sadio Mane. Bild took the decision to remove Wiurzenberger from the Bayern beat to avoid any possible conflict of interest which could affect their news coverage.
