According to the reporter Sean Casey, Levi accepted Bayern’s offer last Friday, but he asked Bayern to release the news of refusing the offer to confuse the outside world.
Sean Casey said that the structure of Bayern’s last offer was rejected by Levi on Thursday, while the latest offer was accepted orally by Levi on Friday.
But Levi asked Bayern to wait for a period of time before formally accepting the offer. He hoped Bayern would let the last rejected offer leak in the media first to confuse the outside world.
