Bayern Munich stars, Jerome Boateng and Leon Goretzka were involved in a bust-up and had to be separated by their other teammates.
The clash occurred after Goretzka launched a
very dangerous tackle at his fellow German counterpart during a small-sided game in training on Wednesday.
The 2014 World Cup winner became incensed after Goretzka mistimed a challenge during a small-sided game, which led to Boateng swinging out at his team-mate.
According to German publication BILD, Goretzka was originally angry after arguing with Thomas Muller over a penalty decision – with the former dismissively gesturing back to the veteran.
Boateng was quick to defend Muller and then just ten minutes later during a training game, Goretzka went in studs up on the German defender.
Boateng did not take the tackle well and reacted by hitting Goretzka square in the face with an open hand.
The report claims that Robert Lewandowski was quick to jump in and intervene while manager Hans Flick also calmed the pair down before talking to the Bayern centre back.
However just moments after the pictures emerged of the training ground bust-up, Goretzka was rapid to play it down by posting a picture of him smiling alongside Boateng while mimicking his team-mates
