Rummenigge, a member of Bayern Munich's board, had criticized Newcastle for agreeing to pay €90m for Woltemade.
Rummenigge stated that when Stuttgart's demands for Woltemade were presented, he expressed his concerns to other club officials, saying that the amount was no longer acceptable.
He then made a joking comment that Stuttgart should be congratulated for finding a buyer willing to pay such a high price for the player.
Rummenigge also suggested that Bayern Munich would not have made the same transfer, implying that it was a questionable decision by Newcastle.
Wehrle responded to Rummenigge's comments with sarcasm, saying that the club is always happy to receive congratulations from Munich.
