This news ticker about FC Bayern Munich is constantly updated
Update from September 15, 12:18 p.m .:
Bouna Sarr will be missing from Bayern for at least six months.
The transfer flop just couldn't get his patellar tendon problems under control and therefore underwent knee surgery.
For the Senegalese this is of course bitter, his World Cup dream has burst.
This saves FC Bayern a lot of money, because the statutory accident insurance covers the 30-year-old's salary for six months.
The sum is not insignificant, Sarr should collect around three million euros a year.
FC Bayern News: Salihamidzic introduces a new salary model - is it at Nagelsmann's expense?
Update from September 15, 9:47 p.m .:
Bayern sports director Hasan Salihamidzic apparently wants to change the composition of player salaries.
As reported by
Sport Bild
, in the future a significantly larger proportion of the salary will be paid out based on performance - players can increase their income with goals or assists, for example.
For Lothar Matthäus, however, this also harbors the potential for conflict: "With such a high-quality range of attacking players as is currently the case at FC Bayern, that also increases the pressure on the coach a little," said the record national player.
"The players who sit on the bench are not only dissatisfied because they are not allowed to play - but possibly also because they are losing part of their salary."
Julian Nagelsmann has the sometimes nice, but sometimes thankless task of keeping a squad full of top-class players happy.
With the new salary model, it shouldn't be any easier if the players may scratch their hooves even more.
FC Bayern News: Salihamidzic's trick could bring in more millions
Update from September 15, 2:51 p.m .:
Does this idea from sports director Hasan Salihamidzic work?
When Bayern loaned Malik Tillman to Glasgow Rangers in the summer, a purchase option was also set.
The Scots would have to pay seven million euros if they wanted to sign the offensive man after the current season.

Everything currently looks as if the Brazzo trick would work: Tillman is a regular player and played a major role in the Scottish giants' Champions League qualification with one goal and one assist.

expert Christian Falk says: "They celebrate him as a new storm hero.
It is very, very likely that the purchase option that Bayern have agreed with them will be exercised.
Then there is an additional seven million euros.”

Salihamidzic had already sold some talents or bench pressers for a lot of money in the transfer summer.
The Munich company received more than 59 million euros from these sales.
Added to this were the 45 million euros for Robert Lewandowski.
It is quite possible that the next bills will follow soon.
Alexander Nübel with an announcement to the Bayern bosses
Update from September 15, 11:13 a.m .:
What will happen to Alexander Nübel?
The Bayern goalkeeper is currently on loan to AS Monaco and he really likes it in the Principality.
The main reason for this: its operating times.
He hardly ever got that in Munich, the goalkeeper was only allowed four times between the Bayern posts.
Will he one day return permanently to the Bavarian capital and succeed Manuel Neuer?
Not clear.
In the
kicker
interview, the 25-year-old spoke plainly - an announcement to the Bayern bosses!
Alexander Nübel: "It's out of the question for me to come back if Manu is still there"
Nübel has ruled out a return to FC Bayern as long as Neuer is still active with the record champions.
"There's no way I'm going to come back if Manu is still there.
I'm definitely not doing that, I can rule out that I'll sit on the bench again at Bayern."
His contract in Munich runs until 2025, and Nübel is on loan to Monaco until the end of the current season.
"If I improve my performance, there will be options, whether in Monaco, at FC Bayern or somewhere else.
I'm relaxed about it," he said.

FC Bayern News: Lucas Hernandez injured - defender is out for weeks
Update from September 14, 2:59 p.m .:
Due to the injury to Lucas Hernandez shortly before the end of the game in the game against FC Barcelona, Bayern newcomer Matthijs de Ligt should have his place in central defense for the next few weeks.
In the Champions League victory on Tuesday, he had to sit on the bench for 90 minutes because coach Julian Nagelsmann relied on Dayot Upamecano - which later turned out to be a golden move.
De Ligt will now get his stakes.
It's just stupid that three of his closest family members were in the stadium against Barcelona: brother, sister and girlfriend had fun in the Allianz Arena.
Update from September 14, 12:45 p.m .:
Lucas Hernandez will be missing from Bayern for several weeks.
The defender tore a muscle bundle in the left adductor area in the 2-0 win against Barcelona, as the German record champions announced.
This was the result of an examination by the medical department of FC Bayern.
Hernandez, who scored 1-0 against Barca, will be out for four to six weeks, according to
tz
information.
Instead, there are two other defenders with Dayot Upamecano and Benjamain Pavard.
The duo is expected to return to training in the next few days.
Nothing speaks against a mission on Saturday in Augsburg.
“I received a hit on the outside of my right thigh.
But I can train on Friday and play on Saturday," Pavard told
Bild
.
Upamecano on his left knee: "I took a hit but I'll be ready on Saturday."
FC Bayern wrestles FC Barcelona - Lewandowski misses great opportunities
First report from September 14:
Munich – Amazon expert Matthias Sammer spoke to many fans from the heart when he summed up at half-time: "This game is a pleasure." FC Bayern and FC Barcelona delivered an open exchange of blows on Tuesday evening .
In the end, it was Munich who won - mainly because they made better use of their chances to score.
Lucas Hernandez and Leroy Sané decided the game with their goals, while returnees Robert Lewandowski, Pedri and Co. either failed because of Manuel Neuer, the outside post or their own inability.
After the game, the Spanish press complained about an “eternal nightmare in Munich”.
Champions League: FC Bayern beats FC Barcelona – controversial Davies scene
A scene in the 44th minute caused excitement even after the game.
Alphonso Davies fouled Ousmane Dembélé in the penalty area?
For Barcelona coach Xavi there was no doubt - penalty.
"We've all seen it," he stated soberly.

Journalist Eduardo Iturralde from the sports newspaper
AS
confronted Bayern defender Lucas Hernandez on broadcaster
Cadena Ser
after the game with his assessment, which many Spaniards (and Spanish media) share.
“Dembélé moves into the penalty area and the Bayern player knocks him down the line.
That's a penalty.” Hernandez, who suffered a painful injury in the final minutes and will probably be out for a long time, didn't quite agree.
FC Bayern vs Barcelona lucky?
Penalty scene heats up
He described the scene as a "penaltito", i.e. a "penalty kick" and made it clear: "If the referee doesn't whistle and the VAR doesn't intervene, you can talk as you want.
The result is what it is.” Amazon Prime expert Mario Gomez would have given the penalty according to his own statements, Matthias Sammer judged at his side: “You can give, you don’t have to.”
Nothing will change in the scoring - FC Bayern started the Champions League season with six points from two difficult games.
And on top of that, he hasn't conceded a goal yet.
The premier class seems to tickle Munich a little more than the Bundesliga, where things are bumping at the moment.
