Klinsmann picks veteran keeper Butt over Rensing

Bayern Munich coach Jurgen Klinsmann has opted for ex-Germany goalkeeper Hans-Joerg Butt ahead of Michael Rensing for Wednesday night’s Champions League quarter-final against Barcelona.

After last Saturday’s 5-1 defeat at the hands of Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga, Rensing, 24, has been left on the bench with reserve goalkeeper Butt, 34, brought into the starting eleven, according to tabloid Bild.

Butt, who won the last of his three caps in 2003, was in goal when Bayern beat Sporting Lisbon 7-1 in the previous round at Munich’s Allianz Arena last month.
