What’s good business sense? It certainly isn’t paying big wages to a coach that isn’t actually coaching your team. But Bayern have at least added a clause that will save them $2 million over the next year – if the guy they “sacked” stays.The Bavarian giants still have to pay the outstanding salary to Julian Nagelsmann. If he doesn’t start a new job in the summer, the payments will be lower bit by bit. Almost two months have now passed since Nagelsmann surprisingly left Bayern. And although he no longer has to show up in the famous Sabener Strasse training complex, the club continues to pay him.

And then the salary payments will no longer be an issue for the Bavarians.🗣️ Volker Struth, Julian Nagelsmann’s agent: “I can confirm that Chelsea were quick to call. There were some phone conversations.”“It was the right decision (by Nagelsmann) not to go there. It’s a club in troubled waters at the moment.
