Sport Bild claims that Bayern upped their last offer for the veteran net-minder by approximately €500,000 in additional performance-based bonuses. The foals shall claim a base transfer fee of €8 million for their #1 with a potential to earn another €1.5 million over the course of time.
With Gladbach - also according to visually all German media sources - already having their preferred replacement for Sommer lined up, there seems little reason to doubt the reports. At a press conference earlier today, FCB head-coach Julian Nagelsmann essentially confirmed that he expected to receive another keeper in time for tomorrow's training session.
