German media Bild reports that Bayern Munich’s headquarters were raided by German criminal police last Tuesday, due to links between Russian oligarch Alisher Usmanov and Bayern Munich’s honorary president Uli Hoeness.

As well as being sportingly disappointing this season – they may not win any titles – Bayern Munich are also under investigation. In this way, Bild informs that the headquarters of the Bavarian club and the Allianz Arena were raided on Tuesday by the German criminal police, due to a potential case of money laundering.

VIP tickets offered and accommodation in Bavaria made available to someone close to Putin?

Authorities are reportedly investigating suspicious links between Uli Hoeness, Bayern’s honorary chairman, and Russian oligarch Alisher Usmanov, a close associate of Vladimir Putin suspected of moving money from crimes, such as his tax evasion between 2017 and 2022.

The two men would have dubious links: Hoeness, for example, would have offered, on several occasions, VIP places for Bayern’s matches in the Champions League to his Russian sidekick, and would have helped him to reside in Bad Wiessee, a Bavarian town. located on the shores of Lake Tegernsee, until his tax evasion.

After the searches, the investigators assured Bild that the investigations were not finished and that the potential money laundering had not yet been confirmed. Bayern did not comment on this situation.
