The Franck Ribery sweepstakes
Uli Hoeness shows who is boss in Bayern. Its not the manager for sure, he will always be a figurehead.
"For 50 millions euros, I don't even pick up my telephone," Hoeness told the Bild tabloid. "Because a figure like that doesn't even give you rights, at best, to one of Ribery's legs.
Its all been a bit confusing. Chelsea's bid of £43.7m (50m euros) for the Bayern midfielder has been rejected.
The Times is now reporting that Real's offer of more than £40m has been accepted and Ribery is all set to join the club. Wait, how much is more? And is it per leg?
