BFW Fight Club: When ultras collide
Media For the most part, we hear good things about the game day experience in Bavaria, but it got a little testy between the Bayern Munich and Wolfsburg fans yesterday. The action on the pitch at the Allianz Arena was intense as Bayern Munich throttled Wolfsburg 6-0 behind a terrific overall performance by Die Roten. The battering, however, was not limited to the soccer field. When ultras from Bayern and Wolfsburg met up in the street, things got a bit heated (as captured by Instagram user 1312_international). The two groups started to engage in a scene that looked straight out of Gangs of New York for a full-scale, “no weapons” brawl on the streets of Munich.

Bayern Munich takes on Borussia Mönchengladbach.<a href="https://as.com/futbol/2021/01/07/primera/1610012265_482936.html?id_externo_rsoc=CM_ES_TW">Alaba’s proposal to Madrid (AS)</a><a href="https://www.bavarianfootballworks.com">Bayern Munich</a> defender David Alaba is widely assumed to be leaving Germany this summer, but his salary demands appear to be a big roadblock. <a href="https://www.managingmadrid.com">Real Madrid</a> are allegedly the frontrunners to sign Alaba, but the player’s initial demands are too high at this point. What exactly is he supposedly asking for? Well, here you go:Alaba wants a salary of 12 million and a signing bonus of, at least, 20 million more. Everything is up in the air until Ramos’ future is known, but in the meantime, the other teams that want Alaba (PSG, Barça, City, United and Liverpool) are putting pressure on him.At €12 million per year with a €20 million bonus, it is no wonder why Real Madrid is thinking it will circle back on the Austrian once it knows the future plans of Sergio Ramos. Could Paris Saint-Germain, <a href="https://www.barcablaugranes.com">FC Barcelona</a>, <a href="https://bitterandblue.sbnation.com">Manchester City</a>, <a href="https://thebusbybabe.sbnation.com">Manchester United</a>, or Liverpool slip in and make an advance?Well, funny enough, the latest on Liverpool is below.<a href="https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/liverpool-aston-villa-game-live-19574232">Latest on Alaba-to-LFC (Liverpool Echo)</a>The Liverpool Echo claims that Real Madrid countered Alaba’s offer above with a counterproposal of €10 million per season. There was no word on whether a signing bonus was included:(Liverpool) have apparently matched Real Madrid in putting forward a contract worth €10million, with the defender free to find a new club as his current deal with the European champions expires this summer. This report is said to come from Goal’s <a href="https://www.blackwhitereadallover.com">Juventus</a> correspondent Romeo Agresti. Juventus were also interested but it is believed they cannot offer as much as the English and Spanish sides.
