Hoeness takes new swipe at Barcelona goalkeeper Ter Stegen

Former Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness has taken a new swipe at Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre Ter Stegen.

Hoeness has been angered by Ter Stegen's claims that he deserves Germany selection ahead of Bayern's Manuel Neuer.

He snapped: “I would have expected him to be cornered and say things are not going that way. It has damaged the reputation of an impeccable athlete like Manuel."

Hoeness claims Ter Stegen has made Neuer sound like "old scrap that should be removed after the Euros".

He also slammed the German Federation for not taking action against Ter Stegen.

"I do not expect any reaction from you," he explained and added: "Their only virtue is to go for a walk in the forest and whistle."
