Bayern Munich's Karl-Heinz Rummenigge hits out at Bild, others over coverage, cites 'false facts'

Bayern Munich have sent legal letters to the publishing house that operates some of Germany's biggest newspapers over recent coverage of the club.

President Uli Hoeness, CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic held a news conference on Friday at which Rummenigge said Bayern would no longer accept the reporting.

"For your information, we would like to tell you that we sent two judicial cease and desist letters to Springer publishing house in the past weeks," Rummenigge said.

"Another cease and desist order was served yesterday. In the future, we will not stop at cease and desist letters but will also demand the right of reply.
