Manuel Neuer recently went to Facebook to debunk claims by German tabloid Bild that Dr. Volker Braun was responsible for his injury woes this year saying that the former Bayern team doctor is “absolutely not to blame.”
Muller-Wohlfahrt and his entire staff left the club in April 2015 after 38 years of service, following disagreements with then-boss Pep Guardiola over the treatment of injured players.
Bild suggested that Dr. Braun hadn’t employed “ideal treatment methods” meaning injured players such as Neuer spent extended spells on the sidelines.
“The media today are giving the impression that Dr. Volker Braun is responsible for the development of my injury, because he did not apply the ideal treatment methods. I categorically dispute this.
“Bayern’s former team doctor is absolutely not to blame. I can even assure that he applied the very best methods that modern medicine allows,” he said in a statement on his Facebook page.
Meanwhile, Muller-Wohlfahrt has not stopped treating individual players, as well as athletes such as Usain Bolt, at his downtown Munich practice.
