Bayern may not be broke after all…
Much has been made of Bayern Munich’s difficult finances and especially the infamous fixed deposit account in recent times. There has been a lot of talk about how the fixed deposit account has dwindled, particularly because it is not a rumor, with supervisory board member Uli Hoeness and board member for sport Max Eberl openly admitting this dwindling in finances. Will Bayern be faced by a quiet summer in order to build the financial status of the club back up?
Perhaps not, says club CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen. Asked after Bayern’s 2-2 draw with Bundesliga rivals Borussia Dortmund, the former CFO of the club was asked if Hoeneß’ comments on the fixed deposit account shocked him: “No, I’m not surprised. Uli’s motivation is different,” Dreesen explained, via @iMiaSanMia. “He’s worried that we’re losing our economic stability with our excessive salaries. Those are his words of warning. But we’re still able to act. That’s the essential message. There’s enough on it [the deposit account] — for whoever it’s enough for.”
