Bayern Munich midfielder Arturo Vidal says the fees clubs are paying for players are far too big, claiming some would have to score "three or four goals every game" to justify the costs.  

The midfielder admitted the transfer fees that clubs pay for players are astronomical and is looking forward to facing his first team, Bayer Leverkusen, on Saturday

And the 28-year-old has admitted that few players are worth the bloated transfer fees paid out in the modern game, claiming it heaps enormous pressure on them.

"These transfer figures today are abnormal," the midfielder told Radio ADN. "A player would have to score three or four goals every game to cost so much.

"In my view, players should cost less."

This Saturday, Vidal comes head-to-head with his old side Bayer Leverkusen and he expressed his gratitude to them for bringing him to Europe from Colo Colo.

"It's a special match because Leverkusen were the first to give me the chance to play in Europe," he concluded.

"But I hope to play well to ensure Bayern are crowned champions at the end of the season."

Vidal has already made two starts for Die Roten this season in a 5-0 rout of Hamburg and a 2-1 win at Hoffenheim, with his side looking for a record-breaking fourth title in a row at the end of the campaign.

Pep Guardiola's men are presently second in the table, sitting behind a resurgent Borussia Dortmund on goal difference.
