The development of transfer fees must be viewed in the context of club revenue. In 2000, FC Bayern's revenue was 283 million Deutschmarks, equivalent to 144.7 million euros; last year it was 951.5 million euros, more than six times as much. The transfer fees aren't the problem; they are amortized over the term of the contract. In Harry Kane's case, with a four-year contract, the 100 million euros burden FC Bayern with 25 million euros per annum.
"That's normal after such a big move abroad. But he's a superb player, he will get used to the Premier League over time and be able to handle the even bigger pressure. I felt the same way at Inter at the beginning. Andi Brehme, whose transfer was rather quiet, performed immediately at Inter. I had to get used to everything, partly due to the media hype and the higher transfer fee," said Matthäus told Sky Germany (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
Herbert Hainer, Dieter Mayer, and Walter Mennekes, with their professionalism and incredible identification with FC Bayern, are responsible for the club's gratifying development in recent years. The club is experiencing the largest membership growth in its history and, thanks to the Executive Board's closeness to the fans, newly developed and established dialogue formats, and the familiar home that FC Bayern offers its people, has unique selling points that are unparalleled in international football.

A lot of players were linked with Bayern Munich this past summer transfer window that did not end up joining the club. In fact, until the signing of Luis Díaz, Bayern were linked to seemingly every left winger under the sun.

Crystal Palace center-back Marc Guéhi is one of the most sought-after center-backs in Europe and nearly moved to Liverpool during the summer transfer window. Now, Bayern Munich could be among the clubs looking to swoop in and take advantage of Liverpool's inability to get the deal done:
When Bayern Munich opted to sell Adam Aznou to Everton earlier this summer, many fans were irate with the club for giving up on another youngster. However, there were some rumblings about Aznous's attitude and work ethic - particularly on Bayern Munich's Club World Cup trip - that might have pushed the club over the edge in determining to get rid of the young left-back.
Jamal Musiala is targeting a return to action for Bayern Munich before the end of 2025. Musiala suffered a fractured fibula and a dislocated ankle in a challenge with Gianluigi Donnarumma during Bayern's defeat to Paris Saint-Germain at the Club World Cup in July. Bayern confirmed he would be absent for a minimum of four months and would require surgery immediately. The Germany playmaker recorded 21 goals and eight assists in all competitions for Bayern last season.

FC Bayern are feeling that too. When it comes to our players' salaries, we have been somewhat generous - and we have to say that self-critically,
