Sammer not ruling out more Bayern arrivals
Bayern Munich sporting director Matthias Sammer has revealed the club could further bolster their squad before the start of the new Bundesliga season.

The Bavarian side have already signed seven new players this summer, including experienced strikers Claudio Pizarro and Mario Mandzukic, Brazilian defender Dante and Swiss wonderkid Xherdan Shaqiri.
And while club CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge was recently quoted as saying the club would not be making any further signings, Sammer insists Bayern are open to bringing in new players as long as they are in accordance with their transfer policy.
"The team was good in last season's campaign and we're not much short of very good," he said on the club's official website. "But perhaps we're missing that key element.
"We will continue to look out for players who can add something positive to the squad. I don't rule out anything but we're not under pressure.
"Further signings are not necessarily essential with the main emphasis being on home-grown potential. We still have good options for improving our game."
Bayern will be hoping their new signings can help them regain the Bundesliga title, which they have lost out to Borussia Dortmund in the past two seasons.
