Happy to be corrected, but I just don’t see how this is contractually legal?

There is no release clause, as they’ve already released him. He’s also not ‘on the payroll’ at Bayern. They simply have to pay him the full value of the contract. It’s hardly their choice.

They've most probably placed him on gardening leave and if that is the case then he's still under contract.
 
What? They are letting him move, they're just not paying his contract up for sacking him. Instead, they'll pay him until he gets a new job. It's common sense for both the club and the manager.
A team will have to pay a fee to get him. Doesn't sound like they really let him go then.

I expect his contract has clear timeframes on how and when he would be paid out, post sacking. With chunks paid out over a timeframe.

I just can’t see how Bayern are in a position to demand a fee from any other team? Maybe a competition clause, to stop him moving to a domestic rival, but they would have to have a strict time limitation.

But it would be in Bayerns interest to let him leave so they don't have to continue paying the remainder of his contract.

The other thing to consider is that Nagelsmann himself might wish to wait as a fuck you to Bayern so they essentially pay him to do nothing

That's not common sense for the manager at all......

If they owe him the remainder of his contract then tough shit BM.
