"Bayern Munich" does not change its policy. The German champions do not intend to splurge money and break their salary structure, especially if they feel that potential newcomers are more interested in payment than in football itself. "Bild" reports that the team coached by Josep Guardiola has rejected plans to acquire Borussia Dortmund defender Ilkay Gundogan. The 24-year-old German had previously declined to extend his current contract with his current team until the end of next season, despite being offered an impressive salary of 6.5 million euros per year. "Bayern" offered a three-year contract worth 24 million euros, but it was not enough for Gundogan. Ultimately, the Munich club decided to end negotiations. Earlier, the Bundesliga champions also refused to acquire Liverpool defender Raheem Sterling."
