German footballing magazine Kicker claims that this number may be closer to €40 million and even suggests that it may rise as high as €46 million. If true, this would push RB's net gains (after transfer fees procured for Hannes Wolf, Dayot Upamecano, and head-coach Julian Nagelsmann) to well over €100 million.
