Bavarian customs authorities revealed that Bayern Munich football had been ordered to reimburse their employees more than 200,000 euros ($216,560) for failing to pay employees the minimum wage during a five-year period, according to AFP. 

The club is also reportedly entitled to pay 45,000 euros ($48,700) in unpaid social security contributions.

Furthermore, the Munich customs office claimed that those employed on limited-hours contracts, in the club's youth training center, were far higher than declared.

"The club did not pay the minimum wage at the youth training center it operates," the office said in a statement. 

During a press conference today, an FC Bayern Munich spokesperson addressed the issue saying it was never the club's intention to withhold employees from their legitimate wages: adding that the club fully cooperated with the investigation team and took the necessary steps to ensure that similar incidents aren't repeated. 

"The club has cooperated with the process and the procedure is now closed," Munich customs spokesman Thomas Meister told AFP subsidiary.
