Source context
Bayern’s league competitors were asked whether the €250m from the Viessmann deal will further increase the gap and make it impossible for them to compete with Bayern. Fernando Carro (Leverkusen): “No, the next titles are not decided. Bayern have always had more resources than the rest of the league. That should motivate all of us to challenge them year after year with everything at our disposal. But it’s also clear that this deal will widen the gap even further. We in German football chose the existing model. We must then also accept the consequences for competition.”
