Völler would like Wirtz to stay at Leverkusen for another year
Rudi Voeller, Sports Director of the German national soccer team, speaks at a press conference on the allocation of rights, for the 2026 Men's World Cup, at Telekom's representative office in Berlin. Telekom has acquired an extensive TV rights package from FIFA, the world soccer association. Christoph Soeder/dpa German Football Federation (DFB) sporting director Rudi Völler hopes Florian Wirtz stays at Bayer Leverkusen for another year and doesn't expect a quick decision on his future. "My favourite solution is for him to stay there for another year and then move on. My Leverkusen team could live with that, but I don't know if other clubs could either," Völler at an event of telecommunications company Telekom in Berlin. Advertisement Völler played in Leverkusen between 1994 and 1996. He was their coach on an interim basis twice and also had different positions at the club management. Wirtz has a contract with Leverkusen until June 2027, but Bayern Munich and Liverpool are reportedly working to sign him. According to reports, the Bayer pharmaceutical company, which owns Levekusen has, given the green light for the sale of Wirtz, but only for €150 million ($170.2 million). The high sum reportedly forced Manchester City out of the race for the 22-year-old. Völler didn't want to comment on the status of the negotiations. "Many people know that I still have a small office in Leverkusen, but they don't tell me everything anymore," he joked.

T-Mobile owner performs better than expected by analysts
T-Mobile's owner – namely, Deutsche Telekom – has a reason to celebrate. The company reported a slight increase in its first-quarter core profit, just above what analysts had expected, and raised its full-year forecast. The company posted adjusted earnings before EBITDA AL of 11.3 billion euros, or about 12.7 billion dollars. That's a 7.9% rise compared to the same quarter last year. Analysts had anticipated 11.1 billion euros, based on a company survey. EBITDA AL is a way to measure how much money a company makes from its main business activities before taking out costs like interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, but after subtracting lease expenses. This means it shows the company's earnings after paying for things like office or equipment rentals, which are often long-term lease agreements. Companies like those in the telecom industry often use EBITDA AL because they have a lot of lease agreements, and this measure helps investors see how well the core business is doing, without being misled by accounting Telekom also adjusted its 2025 outlook, raising its expected core profit to around 45 billion euros, up slightly from the earlier target of 44.9 billion. Free cash flow after leases is now expected to reach roughly 20 billion euros, compared to the prior forecast of 19.9 billion. This follows a similar move in April by its US-based subsidiary, T-Mobile US, which lifted its own profit expectations despite slower-than-anticipated growth in wireless subscribers. Image credit – PhoneArena In late April, T-Mobile reported strong results for the first quarter of 2025, calling it not just its best Q1 ever, but the best quarter in the industry overall. The company added 1.3 million postpaid customers, including 495,000 new phone customers and 424,000 new internet subscribers, leading the sector in customer growth. This performance drove a 5% year-over-year increase in service revenue to $16.9 billion, while postpaid revenue rose 8% to $13.6 billion. Net profit reached $3.0 billion, up 24% from the same period last year. The free cash flow also saw a sharp jump of 52.4% year-on-year, beating analyst estimates by over one billion euros. In Germany, however, the company faced challenges. It pointed to intense competition and a cooling broadband market, which led to a net loss of 7,000 customers. UBS analyst Polo Tang suggested this could be due to rival Vodafone's use of indirect sales channels, such as price comparison websites like Check24. Some market watchers, including ODDO BHF's Stephane Beyazian, noted that these negative trends in the German broadband segment might concern investors. Still, Deutsche Telekom's performance across the rest of Europe remained solid, with revenue rising organically by 3.7%.

Some fixed lines give cause to worry
Published on: Sunday, April 27, 2025 Published on: Sun, Apr 27, 2025 By: Sohan Das Text Size: Landlines dangling dangerously low. LABUAN: Telekom should look into its landlines which had been engulfed by thick unwanted growth and were dangling dangerously low as this condition caused uneasiness among users of the services. Acting as consumer spokesman Vincent Pereira said such a sight is common in a few out-of-town locations and did not befit the island's image as a financial centre and oil and gas hub nor reflect good on maintenance works. He said though technology had advanced with new and faster communication devices in the market landlines were still much relevant and used by many companies. 'Fixed-lines can be attached to fax machine and transmit printed documents with signatures which were legally binding unlike email which could lose in cyberspace,' said Vincent adding as a result most companies have fax machines. He hoped the Telekom would the necessary and not let such sights to become common here. * Follow us on Instagram and join our Telegram and/or WhatsApp channel(s) for the latest news you don't want to miss. * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
