Former Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness savages Manchester City and PSG as he says repeated Champions League failings show their 's***ty money is NOT enough' to win it all

Former Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeness has savagely criticised Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, insisting their 'sh*tty money' is not enough to guarantee European success.

The English side are owned by City Football Group, backed by United Arab Emirates wealth, while PSG are owned by Qatar's sovereign wealth fund, making them among the richest clubs in the world.

But former Bayern and Germany striker Hoeness, succeeded by Herbert Hainer as club president in 2019, told the 11 Leben podcast that financial power alone was insufficient in their quests for European glory.
