FC Bayern is regarding to sell another player. According to current media reports, Chris Richards’ move to Crystal Palace is getting closer.
According to information from “Sky”, the 22-year-old central defender has already agreed to a move with Crystal Palace in the summer. The American has therefore made the decision to leave Munich permanently. Talks between the two clubs are still ongoing.
However, as transfer insider Manuel Veth reports, Bayern and England are getting closer and closer. Accordingly, an agreement is becoming more and more likely. A clear indication that all sides are expecting a transfer is the fact that Richards did not travel to the USA with Bayern.

Does Bayern collect only 60 percent of the income?
There is a fee of 15 million euros in the room, which would be a very good deal for the Munich team in view of Richards’ current market value. The problem, however, is that FC Dallas is rumored to have secured 40 percent of Richards’ future transfer earnings when the youngster was allowed to move to Bayern Munich in the summer of 2018. In plain language, this means that if Bayern actually sell Richards to Crystal Palace for 15 million euros, “only” 9 million euros will remain with the German record champions.
