German outlet Abendzeitung captured an appearance by former Bayern Munich goalkeeper and CEO Oliver Kahn, where the German footballing stalwart indicated that the Bavarians are well-prepared to empty their coffers for Bayer Leverkusen ace Florian Wirtz:
The former boss revealed this in the “Doppelpass.” According to Kahn, even a price tag of 100 million euros will not deter the record champions in the future. “It’s no secret that FC Bayern can do a lot financially if it wants to,” emphasised Kahn, and revealed internal information from his time in the executive suite: “I experienced a lot, the budget was quickly forgotten. The main thing is that the player comes somehow.”
That scenario could make things very interesting for everyone involved. Bayern Munich has the money to splash for Wirtz, but the youngster might want to stay with Bayer Leverkusen for one more season.
Would a big transfer fee and a big salary convince Wirtz to make the leap?
