President Herbert Hainer criticizes alleged UEFA plans

President Herbert Hainer has criticized the alleged plans of UEFA for a new luxury tax. Joshua Zirkzee shot RSC Anderlecht with a brace to victory. The Bundesliga record scorer Gerd Müller died on Sunday at the age of 75. You can find news and rumors about FC Bayern here.

Here you can find all Bayern news and rumors from the previous day.

FCB, News: Hainer criticizes alleged UEFA plans

According to a report in the English newspaper The Times UEFA is planning to abolish financial fair play and instead wants to introduce an upper salary limit, which will be punished with a luxury tax for non-compliance. In an interview with the kicker FC Bayern President Herbert Hainer criticized the alleged plans. The 67-year-old, on the other hand, spoke out in favor of even harsher penalties against financial offenders in football.

“I’m not at all convinced of this luxury tax. In the event of violations, a club pays 100 million euros in luxury tax, which is shared among the other clubs,” criticized Hainer. “This money does not help them decisively and does not really hurt the money giants.”

The UEFA plan apparently stipulates that from 2022 (for three years) the clubs will only be allowed to spend a fixed proportion of their income on player salaries. There is 70 percent in the room, as is currently already practiced in the Spanish league.

If the upper salary limit is exceeded, the so-called luxury tax should be paid to UEFA. For Hainer, this does not go far enough. “We need valid regulations with clear consequences for fair competition,” demanded the FCB boss. “Tender attempts at sanctions have too often been revised or toned down in the past. It doesn’t work that way.”

Bayern transfer rumors: a PSG candidate as a solution on the right?

1/27

The FC Bayern squad is thin in the eyes of many, which was also shown by the sluggish preparation and the 1-1 draw in the opening game against Gladbach. It is conceivable that the FCB will be active again. SPOX shows the transfer rumors.

2/27

With Dayot Upamecano (42.5 million euros), Omar Richards and Sven Ulreich (both free transfer) Bayern have brought three players, but the departures of David Alaba, Jerome Boateng and Javi Martinez have left gaps.

3/27

As the record national player Lothar Matthäus made clear to SPOX and Goal, BVB and Leipzig currently have a better squad than FCB. “I think the Bayern squad hasn’t necessarily gotten better,” he said.

4/27

Matthäus continues: “It won’t be easy for Bayern because there is still a lot to be found there. This is an opportunity for the competition. But I assume that Bayern will still be able to add personnel. “

5/27

Before that, however, one or the other player should leave the club in order to generate fresh millions. According to matching media reports, at the top of the list of sales candidates: CORENTIN TOLISSO.

6/27

The French midfielder allegedly no longer plays a role under coach Julian Nagelsmann. Sports director Hasan Salihamidzic denied rumors that Tolisso had already been sorted out.

7/27

Because Tolisso’s contract expires in the summer of 2022, Bayern allegedly demand ten million euros for the 27-year-old. Manchester United, West Ham United, Arsenal FC and Juventus Turin were recently traded as possible buyers.

8/27

BOUNA SARR and MICHAEL CUISANCE, which was awarded to Olympique Marseille in the previous season, are also to be sold. According to a report by Sport1, Sarr has no interest in leaving the record champions.

9/27

In addition, Sarr does not have the feeling that the people of Munich absolutely want to hand him over and is said to have rejected offers from Turkey. In addition, there are currently no concrete offers for Cuisance.

10/27

A replacement for the midfield is probably already available. MARCEL SABITZER should come from RB Leipzig. According to the picture, the Bayern board of Salihamidzic and Oliver Kahn agreed internally to a payment of 18 million euros.

11/27

Sabitzer, whose contract with the Saxons expires in 2022, had previously played a key role in the headquarters under Julian Nagelsmann and was therefore also given the captain’s armband.

12/27

Nevertheless, the kicker reported that those responsible for Bayern at Sabitzer lacked the “unanimous conviction”. Nagelsmann, however, is pushing for further obligations and is already putting pressure on internally.

13/27

The 34-year-old sees a need for action, especially in the defensive network, which is also due to the injuries of Benjamin Pavard and Lucas Hernandez. Nagelsmann’s great wish: a right-back.

14/27

In Gladbach, youngster Josip Stanisic did a good job, but whether the 21-year-old will meet Bayern’s high standards in the long run is at least questionable. That is why a national player is said to come into focus.

15/27

As the portal fussballtransfers.com found out, a meeting between Bayern officials and a representative from THILO KEHRER took place as part of the Bundesliga kick-off to discuss a possible transfer.

16/27

The defender could hardly play a role at Paris Saint-Germain in the future. For the right side of defense, the French brought in Achraf Hakimi for 60 million euros a well-known replacement. In central defense, the competition is also great.

17/27

Kehrer still has a contract until 2023 and would probably cost up to 20 million euros. After the big shopping spree, the PSG bosses want to get players off the payroll. Leverkusen, Gladbach and Frankfurt should also be interested in the 24-year-old.

18/27

Nagelsmann could soon have another option on the offensive as well. SPOX and Goal can confirm a report from RMC Sport that Bayern are interested in Amine Adli from the French second division FC Toulouse.

19/27

Munich have been in contact with the 21-year-old Frenchman for a few weeks and have presented him with a long-term plan in which he would initially be included as a fourth option for the flanks.

20/27

However, Adli, whose contract expires in 2022, may have already rejected an offer from FCB. This is what statements by club president Damien Comolli suggest. “I have a hard time understanding why …

21/27

… The player refuses to speak to a club that is among the top five in Europe, ”Comolli told La Depeche. According to French media reports, Adli currently prefers a move to AC Milan.

22/27

The rumors about FLORIAN NEUHAUS also persist. The national player had recently fueled speculation about a move to the Isar. “Everyone knows that things can happen very quickly in football,” he told the sports buzzer.

23/27

However, the 24-year-old also added that he assumed that he would stay with Gladbach this season. Sports director Max Eberl recorded the same at a press conference on Thursday.

24/27

According to several media reports, there should already have been contact between Bayern and Neuhaus. According to Sport Bild, the ex-lion should have an exit clause of 40 million euros in his contract (until 2024).

25/27

In addition, European champion NICOLO BARELLA from Inter Milan will be a topic. As Corriere dello Sport reports, FC Bayern is watching the 23-year-old’s situation very closely. Atletico Madrid are also showing great interest.

26/27

However, Inter recently put a stop to a transfer of the Italian. Only an immoral offer – as with Lukaku – could lead to a rethink, which is why a transfer to Munich is very unlikely.

27/27

In view of the financial situation caused by the corona pandemic, Barella is probably not an option for this summer. Instead, FC Bayern will continue to seek Sabitzer and possibly Kehrer.

FCB, News: Zirkzee shoots Anderlecht to victory with a double pack

Joshua Zirkzee led RSC Anderlecht to a 3-1 win against Cercle Bruges with a double. The loan from FC Bayern scored in the 13th and 29th minute after Anderlecht went behind early (1st).

For Anderlecht it was the second victory in a row in the Belgian Jupiler Pro League. Last weekend, coach Vincent Kompany’s team won 3-0 against RFC Seraing after scoring just one point from the first two games of the season.

For Zirkzee it was the second starting eleven in the dress of the Belgians. The 20-year-old Dutchman is on loan from FCB to the violet-whites until the end of the season.

The striker should gather match practice at Anderlecht. The previous loan to AC Parma last season was not very successful. Injuries mostly put Zirkzee out of action. In addition, he rose with the club from Serie A at the end.
