Bayern Munich can sign Blackburn's Hoilett for chump change

Bayern Munich can sign Blackburn Rovers contract rebel Junior Hoilett for a knockdown £675,000.

The Sun says Rovers hope to land a fee in the region of £6million for the forward, who looks set to leave when his contract expires at the end of the season.

But the German giants are interested and they can get Hoilett, 21, on the cheap.

FIFA rules say clubs are entitled to 'training costs' of 90,000 Euros a year if a player under 23 moves to a different country.

Hoilett has been with Blackburn for nine years, meaning Bayern would pay just 810,000 Euros if they make a move - currently £675,000 in sterling.
