I've just read somewhere that Ribery will decide in March if he'll stay at FC Bayern or not. If he doesn't extend his contract he only has a year left and therefore, FC Bayern want to cash in on him. And now here's the "tricky" part. Ribery signed for FCB in 2007 (4 years). Therefore, according to the Webster ruling, he'll be able to choose any non-German club he wishes in the summer with FCB only entitled to a year's salary as compensation, this making him a lot cheaper than Bayern's original price tag. I reckon a lot of players are in a similar situation as well. How come clubs don't take advantage of this? With the little money Rafa has available, this would be a decent opportunity to sign "proven" players or am I just dreaming? I find it a bit odd that no one has exploited this. Maybe I've misunderstood the whole thing...
