In English it is

What I don't get about English ways of pronouncing things to do with football, why do we call Roma Roma and not Rome, Napoli Napoli and not Naples, yet we call Milan instead of Milano, and Bayern Munich instead of Bayern Munchen

I think in Brazil the only club that we pronounce different from the original is Bayern Munich (Bayern de Munique)

I read that it's Bayer because they're owned by the Bayer Medicine Corporation.

Much like how Red Bull adds Red Bull to any sporting club they own. (IE New York Red Bulls, Red Bull Salzburg, Etc.)

Has anyone read the rumor that Red Bull wants to add a English club to their portfolio?

It's going to be the first time I can watch German Football with ease. (I had to pause for a second, I'm from the States and almost said soccer for the wrong reason)
