Bayern Munich director of sport Max Eberl has confirmed that Germany midfielder Leon Goretzka is 'upset' with his current status at the club.
The 29-year-old featured in 42 matches for Bayern across all competitions last season, but he has received less than 10 minutes of game time during the first four fixtures of the current campaign.
Goretzka's reduced role is in part a consequence of Bayern signing Portugal midfielder Joao Palhinha from Fulham this summer.
Twenty-year-old Aleksandar Pavlovic has also emerged as a strong option in Goretzka's position, while versatile star man Joshua Kimmich is now being used more in midfield, rather than in defence.
