Magdalena Eriksson joined Bayern’s scouting department and now tracks South American talent for the men’s team.
Mika Godts had a major impact on the match as he assisted Ajax's first goal, scored by Anton Gaaei, before he found the back of the net himself in stoppage time to equalise for his team.
While that did not end well, he retained his reputation as one of the most notable sporting management figures in Germany. So when his son Nils Schmadtke burst on to the scene and started working in the same field his father was, there were murmurs of nepotism being at work. Those allegations gained traction when he started getting more and more positions of power in German football at alarming speeds and peaked when he landed the job of Head of Scouting at Bayern Munich.
"It's been a long journey," Johnston told BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club. "It started with my friend messaging my during lockdown saying 'you need to get on Twitter, that's where everyone is talking about football'. "I took it kind of seriously, built up a following and where it really started was when I discovered the Chelsea academy. "I fell in love with watching the academy games, seeing the young players come through. It was what I was known for, my niche on Twitter."
