If I were Bayern, I'd just shut up and let Konny take my money. The Austrian is the best right-back that the club has had since Joshua Kimmich, who has since moved to midfield. The former RB Leipzig man can run for days and days and days and is in his prime (he is currently 28-years-old) which means he's got lots left in the tank. His absence is also felt during his injury layoff and the time where he got suspended.
Serge Gnabry wants to stay at Bayern Munich The ball is now in Bayern's court! Sporting director Max Eberl was charged in the summer with the important task of lowering the squad wage bill. After moves for Florian Wirtz and Nick Woltemade fell through, Eberl was hamstrung in the market, with Uli Hoeneß and the supervisory board ordering a loans-only policy.
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.
