Yes..it was a very matured interview and there is no doubt for me, that he means it. All the media is doing is picking up that last sentence, which is not more than a general statement.
Both parties r saying, that they want and like each other, but both r reserved and distanced. It perfectly descibes how important that upcoming season is going to be for Götze at Bayern.
yeah, very obvious that he is staying at Bayern for another year atleast. but this whole story has something behind it. Bayern giving us permission to talk to him, he himself saying weird stuff sometimes, him deciding to stay after all this fiasco etc. its not the usual "not for sale" situation, there is more behind it.
im assuming that we have talked to Gotze and his agent, and we probably presented our offer to him or agreed personal terms or something like that. then we and Bayern gave him time to decide whether he wants to join us or not. so maybe we have agreed something for the next summer since he decided he is staying in the end? you said this is his last chance at Bayern, if he doesent use it he will be going probably. maybe he accepted that challenge, wants to try to prove himself at Bayern still, wants to prove himself to Pep, wants to see if Guardiola will leave after this season and if a new coach arrives, what are his ideas with the team and with Mario etc. but he also probably wants to see how thing at Juve go, now that we sold 3 star players, the ambitions of the club, the players that will come/leave etc.
so i think if we made an agreement with him, that its for the next summer. if he screws up his last chance at Bayern, and if Juve would be still interested in getting him, that we already have agreed personal terms and dealing with Bayern then would be easy.
just a theory
