Blind says the move was a great opportunity for him to be back at the top again, even if only for six months. "It's something you want as a player. To play for trophies and be at the highest level."
The move was necessitated by the loss of Lucas Hernandez for the season with a major knee injury. Blind explains that he was a good opportunity for Bayern because he was a free player with the experience they were looking for.
"Of course, I'm happy that they came to me and I'm happy that I can help them where it's needed," Blind said.
Blind's father, Danny, a former Dutch professional, is also excited about the move to Bayern Munich. "Bayern Munich is one of the biggest clubs in the world," said the younger Blind. "Of course, my dad is proud."
