It looks like Robert Lewandowski wants to leave Bayern Munich after CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge revealed that the Polish forward 'dreams' of playing for another European giant.

Rummenigge, who was talking to German publication BILD, proceeded to hit out at striker Lewandowski, criticizing his long-time ambition to join Real Madrid.

"I am sorry for what Lewandowski said. It's not the first time he talks bad about our club and I know his agent Barthel is behind his statements. I don't believe, however, that a player has all this power." Rummenigge told BILD.

"Lewandowski's contract expires in 2021 and unfortunately for him, there is no release clause."

Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has revealed that Lewandowski's 'dream' club is Real Madrid.

The 54-year-old, who spent 10 years of his playing career at Bayern, went onto state that Lewandowski was unhappy with pre-season, but reminded the Poland international that his 'dream' club spent 24 days travelling in hot weather.

I sense a little tension, here:

"Lewandowski was also unhappy with the pre-season tour we had in Asia but he should remember that Real Madrid, the clubs he dreams of playing for, spent 24 days travelling with hot weather.
"That's much more than what we did in the summer." Rummenigge said.

It all began when Lewandowski told another German publication, Der Spiegel, that he wanted Munich to compete for the best players in the current transfer market.

The 29-year-old said: "Bayern will have to come up with something and be creative if the club wants to keep bringing world-class players to Munich. And if you want to compete at the top, you need to have these quality players."

Rummenigge was quick to reply, and in the interview with BILD, the CEO said: "It would be a pity, if he actually saw it that way. Loyalty is part of Bayern's DNA and very important to our fans,"

or a long time now we have a serious and successful philosophy that brought us big success. I stick with our chancellor who said the fees should be regulated and reduced.

"Obviously Robert was irritated by PSG's transfers. He is employed with us as a football player and earns a lot of money. I regret what he said."

LIONEL MESSI WINS A FIGHT TO REGISTER HIS NAME AS TRADEMARK.

A European court has ruled that Lionel Messi, the world's top earning footballer, can trademark his own name. The Barcelona and Argentina striker fought a seven-year fight to be able to use his name on sports goods. His original application was challenged by the Spanish cycling brand, Massi, which argued that the names were too similar and would cause confusion. But the EU's General Court ruled that the footballer was too well known for confusion to arise. The ruling comes days after France Football magazine reported Mr Messi had overtaken Cristiano Ronaldo as the highest earner in football, with an income of €126m (£108m). Mr Ronaldo is making €94m, the magazine said. Mr Messi's application to trademark his name was made to the European Union Office for Intellectual Property (EUIPO) in 2011.

DENMARK CALLS FOR EU BAN ON ALL DIESEL & PETROL CARS BY 2040.

An anti-exhaust emission traffic sign is pictured in Copenhagen, Denmark April 18, 2017. Image: Reuters. Luxembourg, LUXEMBOURG: Denmark, backed by 10 other European Union countries, on Friday called for an EU-wide ban on diesel and petrol cars by 2040 to combat climate change. Denmark made the proposal during a meeting of EU environment ministers in Luxembourg. The EU aims to cut carbon emissions in the bloc by 40 per cent by 2030 while its executive, the Commission, plans to reduce them to zero by 2050 to help stop global warming. "We need to acknowledge that we are in a bit of a hurry," Danish Climate and Energy Minister Dan Jorgensen told Reuters after the meeting. He said the diesel and petrol car ban will hopefully put pressure on the Commission to propose a phasing out of fossil fuel-powered vehicles in the bloc in the coming two decades. Denmark made headlines in October 2018 when its government announced that it would ban the sale of a...

GERMANY INSTALLS CABLES OVER HIGHWAY TO POWER HYBRID TRUCKS.

A stretch of a prominent Germany highway just got a high-tech upgrade: overhead power lines — like the ones you only see over rail tracks — that can power hybrid trucks. The German government announced that a 6-mile (10 km) stretch of the autobahn got the upgrade, a test that could pave the way for a new carbon neutral strategy to transport goods. The system, developed by German conglomerate Siemens in 2012, allows hybrid trucks to charge their batteries while traveling at speeds of up to 56 mph (90 km/h). Image: Siemens. Similar stretches of electric highways have been built in Sweden and the United States. Other solutions for charging electric vehicles while on-the-go include rails built into the asphalt . Electrifying truck transportation could also save a tonne of fuel: 20,000 euros' worth for every truck traveling 62,000 miles (100,000 km), according to Siemens’ website .

U.S SPY SATELLITES CATCH CHINESE SHIPS ILLEGALLY SELLING OIL TO NORTH KOREA.

According to South Korea’s chosun llbo , U.S. recon satellites have photographed around 30 illegal transactions involving Chinese vessels selling oil to North Korea on the West Sea in October. The images allegedly showed large Chinese and North Korean ships transacting in oil in a part of the West Sea closer to China than South Korea. The satellite pictures even showed the names of the ships. A government source said, “We need to focus on the fact that the illicit trade started after a UN Security Council resolution in September drastically capped North Korea’s imports of refined petroleum products.” Meanwhile, on paper, China’s trade with North has recently collapsed after U.S. President Donald Trump unleashed a barrage of sanctions in September targeting North Korea’s imports of refined petroleum products. Back in November, the US. Treasury Department sanctioned an additional six North Korean shipping and trading com...

WHY CHINA'S DOG-MEAT MARKET HAS EXPANDED.

Every year during the summer solstice, a dog-eating festival takes place in Yulin, a city in the southern Chinese province of Guangxi. This year’s event ended with the usual controversy. Photographs of dogs being fried or treated cruelly went viral. The Jinhua Hutou Dog Meat Festival, as it is called, was abruptly canceled last week. Animal-rights activists and American congressmen demanded that China ban the eating of dogs and cats, as Taiwan did in April. Yulin’s local government took modest steps to restrain or hide some of the more contentious activities, such as selling dogs in food markets. Still, the festival was packed. Why has the controversial culinary habit become so popular in China? Contrary to cliché, dog meat has not always been a common item in the Chinese diet. Unlike in the West, eating dogs has never been taboo, but it appears to have been rare in the past. Government accounts single out butchers who sold dog meat, suggesting it ...

MALAWI EX-PRESIDENT JOYCE BANDA RETURNS HOME AFTER 4 YEARS EXILE.

Hundreds of opposition People’s Party (PP) supporters on Saturday turned out to welcome Malawi’s former president, Joyce Banda, who has been abroad for four years. Security has been tight, especially on road between the Blantyre commercial city and Chileka International airport. Banda and her husband retired Chief Justice Richard Banda, waved the crowds on arrival sporting her signature attire of a wrap on her shoulder and had dark glasses. The former Malawi leader addressed reporters at airport’s VVIP lounge where she rebutted claims that she fled the country in 2014 when she lost power after being embroiled in the so-called Cashgate scandal, in which government officials siphoned off millions of dollars of public money. Banda — only the second woman to lead a country in Africa — who landed at midday (1000 GMT) on a flight from Johannesburg, explained that after losing elections she went to a summit in United States and returned home. She said a...
