Bayern Munich hold winter training in Qatar

Bayern Munich will be holding their winter training camp at the Qatari capital, Doha, ahead of the start of the second half of the German 2012-13 Bundesliga campaign on February 19. After spending their Christmas break with their families, the German club will play two friendlies with the other German visitors Schalke and Qatari league champions Lekhwiya. Praising the facilities at hand in Qatar, head coach Jupp Heynckes told the club's official website "I do not usually like to travel for long hours to attend a training camp but this one deserves the effort... The weather in Qatar, the food and the stadiums encourage us to hold out camp there".Source : QNA
