Thomas Muller Worths No Bayern pay rise - Heinrich

thomas muller sad
The former Germany international feels that paying the striker €15 million per season would be too much compared to what the average fan of the Bavarian side makes
Former Germany international Jorg Heinrich feels Bayern Munich would be wrong to offer Thomas Muller an annual salary of €15 million, insisting it would alienate their fans.

Recent reports suggest Bayern are ready to offer the 26-year-old a significant pay rise in order to convince him to snub interest from abroad, with Manchester United allegedly keeping a close eye on his situation at the Allianz Arena.

Nevertheless, Heinrich - now coach of fourth-tier side Luckenwalde - feels it would be a bad idea to pay Muller €15m per year before taxes.

"Muller could be earning €15m per year at Bayern in the future," Heinrich wrote in his column for TZ.

"But what does this effectively mean? First of all, a lot of tax deductions! His new payslip will be a massacre. He will make €1.25m a month before taxes, of which will remain €614.232 after taxes.


"If Muller goes for an eight-hour sleep, he will have made an extra €6.731. That means he will be making more or less 200 times as much as regular fans.

"Of course, Muller is a great player and worth a lot of money. But surely making 100 times as much as a normal fan should do the trick as well."

Muller's current contract with Bayern is due to expire in June 2019.
