“We hope to return to Munich for the Champions League Final,” said the Coach of that May 19, 2012 appointment.

“Tonight's game is an important test ahead of the Italian Super Cup against Inter, but we have to focus on one thing at a time.

“I'm satisfied with how things are going. Pre-season training is progressing well without any particular problems.”

Antonio Cassano is expected to start against Bayern Munich this evening alongside Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
