Berlin: Jerome Boateng has been taken to court over an unpaid deposit of 250,000 euros ($265,590) as the Bayern Munich star battles to be fit for their Champions League clash against Arsenal.
A laywer representing the Germany defender was in Munich's district court on Wednesday over the unpaid bill of a quarter of a million euros, plus tax - a deposit on a villa in the Bavarian capital. The estate agent, who took Boateng to court, offered to reduce the sum to 220,000 euros, which Boateng's lawyer rejected, while the judge has suggested the matter be settled for 185,000. They have three weeks to compromise.
