incredibly young he had some results good results with hoffenheim before he went to leipzig and imagine in his 1st year at leipsic he's only been there 2 years in his 1st year he brought the team as was mentioned in the report all the way to the semifinals of the champions league they also finished 3rd that season right now this season they're in 2nd place they will finish there also and i think also the game that delight sic had inspired munich a few weeks ago earlier this month where they only lost one neal but it could have gone either way i think that really impressed by a new nick boces that could have well being the final thing that made them realize that not this man would be the man for them and if we believe reports this is a hefty price tag. i mean we're hearing 25000000 we're hearing 30000000 it could be the sky's the limit but apparently how this even came about and how the money was agreed to was that not most money went to the boss of flights and said look i have a chance now to maybe get to buy in munich you probably heard that hans the flick

is leaving and it's my dream to play for byron munich and i mean like she can had an open ear and then decided to talk to byron munich in the 2 sides came out with it with a beneficial solution let's put it that way financially for both sides and so no bad feelings to leipsic apparently so they say and and and that's how that came about but i mean a lot of money here but then again you know it buyer keeps on winning that means tons of money for buy in munich ok i want to think who's going to succeed noddles man. well i mean one of my favorites is is all of it blossomed from from well sport i mean his team right now is in 3rd place but we're hearing from austria from like 6 brother team or sister team as you have that salt sport that they that the coach there the american coach jesse marsh would be very interested in becoming the new coach for like 6 and i mean you know they they work together and that whole club

those 2 clubs in a way you know they send team younger players to each other things like that so they get more experience so he could very well be the front runner in this. so see from our new sport thank you thank you. that's it you're up to date more world news on the top of the hour coming up next here on v.w. news asia with bearish banishing going to.

the past actual vaccines the division of discipline it's the baby appreciate it well last scenes may be appreciated but it was giant now it's too soon to see what you were actually doesn't wasn't great just doing it at this point can be a massive crisis the country's facing. today. concerns are growing. outbreak on tuesday the country hit a record high of 15 deaths new destructions have come into force including the wearing of mosques and the venues such as parks and gyms among others. bangkok on high alert hardly anyone is traveling as the city tightens its lockdown . being the epicenter of a new outbreak means shops like this have to close for 2 weeks. is the

owner of this massage shop like many people in business she's unhappy with the government's pandemic response. that the government should have done better they should not have waited until there was a new outbreak to come up with the current regulations which totally affect all kinds of businesses for less. than half. a raft of other venues including gyms cinemas and even parks also have to close. this amid an alarming 3rd wave of infections that thailand is experiencing both the number of new cases and deaths have been on an unprecedented rise since mid april. the supply of i.c.u. and hospital beds severely strained the search has prompted initiatives to turn hotels into hospitals to accommodate patients with lighter symptoms.

yes the country grapples with a new outbreak some residents in bangkok say everyone needs to take responsibility . with the smashes to a certain extent and i'm willing to cooperate as long as it helps decrease the number of infections even if it affects me. and restaurants to operate with times there are concerns that it could trigger more. and worsen the increasingly severe situation in thailand. but u.s. troops beginning the process of pulling out from of gunnison over the coming weekend fares are growing in the country about the future of women's rights a resurgent taliban could potentially have a greater say in running the country the group has said in the past that it supports the role of women under an islamic system but given its past record that

may not mean much there are also questions about how much of a product the women's rights have been during the mostly maybe led these negotiations altogether it doesn't paint a hopeful picture for the future of rights that women have enjoyed in afghanistan over the past 2 decades. is very proud she's had a job for 2 years now the 40 year old works at a tailor's shop for women in afghanistan carrying out a profession is a privilege one that many are denied. i'm so incredibly happy and also grateful that i'm allowed to work here i've learned tailoring here and i've gained self-confidence and i can earn money that means i can help support my family. works here at the tailor's 5 days a week. the shops. open their business 3 years ago she

employs 38 women. there are no men working in our shop that if. i wanted to show everyone that women can do just as much as men that's why i opened my tailor's shop it was important for me to prove that women can work and that they're independent and that they can add something to society. she's achieved just that over the past 3 years her shop's been a success but now she's worried what will happen here after the international troops withdraw from afghanistan and the taliban possibly return to power. the bit that of course is a business owner i'm afraid of what could happen only women work here we all remember the dark days of the taliban we know that when they were in power women had no rights and weren't allowed to work in a profession like this. working here is helped many women in the region like her coworker serena her husband's income wasn't enough to support

the whole family thanks to serene as wages the family can get by now but sit on the other i'm grateful that i can support my family but of course i'm worried that i could become unemployed if the taliban come to power again. that's a concern shared by all the same sources here so harley's doesn't want to lose the rights that women have acquired over the last 20 years. for the 1st time in her life she and her family have enjoyed a sense of security. used to feel scared when i was out of my own i didn't know whether i'd get home alive i hope these times are never repeated and that we can live in peace and security you know to best me and let me home go out on maybe also. work peace and security basic human needs that remain privileges for afghan women. joining me now for more

is some you know how many she's a human rights activist with amnesty international and she follows the human rights situation in afghanistan quite closely she joins me on the line from colombo this movie welcome how concerned are you that women's rights in afghanistan could take many steps back if the taliban come to power. thank you so bad. i think the last 20 years have been have been. of course that years of struggle but those the years of achievements that happen if you look at. them and politics if you look at will with it in education higher education as well as if social and. spent has meant in businesses today these are all of you who mans that. i strongly believe that if taiwan were back in iowa and have backlashes and heat back

when states where. where women went in and in that time when taliban. and teach and why have these concerns is also because of militias to mitigate their vision that. i have not seen. a very specific and concrete statement by the taliban positioning ourselves on how the day will look with women and how they will ensure that women as half of the population in afghanistan deserve to be equally in. the death and that's where there's a lot of uncertainty in concert and these as if it's back and. right so what you're saying is because of his lack of commitment it would appear true that the various and the goals pearson's of have taken place so far with the fall of on. the river between various countries in the region women's rights are not being adequately represented in these talks. with absolutely not i demand

a year ago when when the united states especially if this entity and want peace process in afghanistan is that we'll ask the question that how do we deal on a woman and woman's right because you know united states kid got on the stand with the slogan that your dad to protect our women. how you deal with it is just was that this is an add on issue this has to be discussed it has been internally between the problem and gotland government and united states has to play catch so well that is why that was by disappoint me a but it was also an eye opener that. because i have a have a very strong stance shelby have the have the have his teeth it can't cheat men to woman and get enough fun stuff there are actors who don't want to talk to

a woman so i think that's where we don't see any kind of get in here any kind of your assurance that women's rights birthday i guess nathan not be you know the savior be my guest now with the u.s. set to were drawn along with the us other foreign troops are also set to redraw from of comments on do you think that this we're drawing is a mistake. did you know that had to happen and i think most of the afghan women that i gauge with and i took to if you didn't believe that you know we cannot delay an international force as the rest of the us that the other living in afghanistan but what i strongly believe is that this it's over this is sponsored this withdrawal is without any ganti that the conflict will end and how this material is oh so without any esurance that there would there will not be any better. terms of you know human best situation human baked feet of freedom of

expression women's rights and this majority is in a sponsible because it was very disappointing to hear united states peston joe biden as speaking about sacrifices of u.s. forces speaking about. time for them to go back but he did not he did not really you know point out a single time about 65 that afghan people every day with all the costs of something that they are not to sponsor a summer home in the river from eva vera for the time being but thank you so much for joining us on this very important subject. thank. you that's it for today there's of course more updates on our website get up with dot com forward slash asia and you're going to follow us on facebook and twitter as well we're back tomorrow again at the same time with seals and about.
