Christian Lell will have an unwanted present waiting for him when he returns home from Bayern's training camp in Marbella: a court fine of at least €100,000.
The defender was involved in a heated argument with his then girlfriend by his car following a night out in a Munich club in February of last year.
As police arrived at the scene Lell is alleged to have kicked them and called them something beginning with 'W'. He was also found to have alcohol in his system above the legal driving limit.
Courts in the city have now decided to fine the 23-year-old for his actions. "It's a punishment for resistance against police officials and offensive language," commented state prosecutor Anton Winkler to Bild. Charges of bodily harm have been dropped.
Asked about the fine from Bayern's camp in Spain, Lell only commented that he hadn't heard anything about it, but Bild claims the punishment consists of 80 days' wages. The newspaper therefore estimates that the player's net earnings are around €1250 per day, just short of €9000 a week.
