Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has branded football "sick" and claims many clubs are heading for financial ruin.Despite paying the highest wages in Germany, Bayern have no such financial concerns, but Rummenigge sees the situation deteriorating elsewhere.
"Football is sick," he told Kicker magazine.
"I read a statistic which says 85% of all professional football clubs are running at a loss."
Rummenigge believes UEFA should impose a cap on how much clubs may spend for wages, claiming "50 to 55% of turnover" should be the upper limit.
"That would make football healthier again," he said.

Firstly, it was the owners' greed, then came the Bosman Rule and the players become greedy. Capped all players' salary and limit their agents commission
