Bayern willing to spend 100m euro

Berlin, March 31: Bayern Munich can afford to spend a sum of a whopping 100 million euro ($108.5m) to buy a single player at the end-of-season transfers, the German football club’s fince director Jan-Christian Dreesen has said.

“It’s possible for us to spend 100 million euros on a player,” said Dreesen on Monday, reports Xinhua.

“It may not come true but I don’t want to correct my own words at some point in the future.”

Bayern made a German record by signing midfielder Javi Martinez from Atletico Bilbao shelling out 39.9 million euros in 2012.

Real Madrid set a spending world record in 2013, when the Spanish football club signed Gareth Bale from English side Tottenham Hotspur with reported 100 million euros. IANS
