Julian Nagelsmann talks about death threats against himself and his family after the defeat of Villarreal

There are “generally more death threats if we play back three and not back four, if you lose a little more”.

Nagelsmann also explained how he deals with it: “I don’t give a damn. People should write what they want. I can’t understand it.”

Many people would quickly forget their complete decency on the Internet, according to the Bayern coach: “But it’s all useless if you talk about it, because they don’t change anyway, they think they’re right, that’s right the bizarre.”

He also doesn’t believe that security measures are being increased in the club despite the death threats. “One also moves as a private person. I don’t want to provoke anyone now. There was no one on my doorstep,” says Nagelsmann.

Hasan Salihamidzic also received death threats

He also gets hate messages “after every game – regardless of whether we win or lose. I only ever see the first line and then delete them all at once.” In general, however, he copes well with constructive criticism. “I can deal with that. Maybe not quite as well with the 450 death threats on Instagram. But I don’t read them all, that’s maybe a little less thoughtful.”

“You have to face the criticism when you’re eliminated from a game in which you’re actually the favorite and you don’t meet the target in two out of three competitions. Then the coach is also criticized,” explained the 34-year-old.

After the quarter-finals in the premier class against FC Villarreal, the family of sports director Hasan Salihamidzic had already reported death threats on social media.
