In his opening speech at an annual general meeting of FC Bayern Munich, the new CEO Oliver Kahn warned against the behavior of investor clubs in Europe. “We are currently experiencing the most fundamental change that football has ever seen. That is why we are fighting at the forefront to ensure that investors cannot pump unlimited money into clubs, ”said the 52-year-old ex-national goalkeeper, who replaced Karl-Heinz Rummenigge at the helm of FC Bayern AG last summer.

“With us there is definitely no investor group or a multimillionaire,” emphasized Kahn, who promised the members: “We will continue to go our own Bavaria path.” The “European Super League”, which some top international clubs such as Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and Juventus Turin are still striving for, recently “collapsed within 48 hours,” said the Bayern boss in his speech: “Because that would be the end of football as we know him. “
