nudge Posted April 28, 2017 Posted April 28, 2017 It's a weird deal, all in all. At first there were talks that Bayern have bought him and loaned him out to us directly, then there were talks of Werder buying him but putting a clause in his contract so he could join Bayern for a fixed amount of money, then they said there's a generic 8 million buyout clause for any club, and now they are saying there is no buyout clause at all I'm completely confused. Just yesterday Gnabry said that he feels at home in Bremen though. RB are apparently interested in him now as well, and they might use Selke in a sort of exchange deal. Hope not.

That loan to West Brom fucked everything up because Tony Pulis didn't know what the fuck to do with him. Surprising thing was the fact more teams didn't come in for him especially after his performances at the Olympics. There was Bayern Munich and Werder Bremen being mentioned with no one in between. At £5m as well, was a bargain then and looks like theft now. Clubs with young, technical players should be wary to send players off to Pulis ever again. The same happened to Alex Pritchard from Spurs. Had a tremendous season with Brentford in the Championship, earned a new contract at Spurs and direct praise from Poch, then goes off to Pulis, and goes down the toilet of English football. He's clueless with such players, utterly clueless. Just because it's a Prem loan means sweet fuck all. Would rather send players off to Scotland than him.

Werder reportedly get 10 Mio. Euros for him. They're after Ginter as well.
nudge Posted May 17, 2017 Posted May 17, 2017 So Hoffenheim are apparently close to agreeing personal terms with Gnabry, he will probably leave for around 10 million according to media reports. Danke für die Tore und Tschüß.

nudge Posted May 17, 2017 Posted May 17, 2017 Just now, Tsubasa said: He has been so useless for Gladbach this season. So was Kruse for Wolfsburg last season At any case, I'm not particularly excited about Hahn either, I think his technique is way too poor for the kind of football we've been trying to play lately, and he wouldn't come for less than 3-4 million I think.
Moderator Tommy Posted May 17, 2017 Author Moderator Posted May 17, 2017 He's also not the most intelligent player. When he came on for Gladbach this season, he usually ran around like a headless chicken and committed 2-3 silly fouls.
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted June 7, 2017 Subscriber Posted June 7, 2017 Done deal. Hoffenheim have completed the signing of former Arsenal winger Serge Gnabry from Werder Bremen. As talkSPORT told you in April, the Bundesliga club were in talks about a deal for the 21-year-old, who left Arsenalin a £5m deal last August. And now, according to Sport Bild, Hoffenheim have agreed the terms on a permanent transfer which will be officially confirmed in the next few days. The Germany international impressed during his first season back in the country, scoring 11 goals in 27 Bundesliga outings. That form had even led to links with Bayern Munich but it appears that Hoffenheim have won the race to sign him.

God is Haaland Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 Reminder: Back in November 2012 talksport announced that Lewandowski's transfer to Manchester United was a done deal and that he would start playing for United in January 2013.
nudge Posted June 7, 2017 Posted June 7, 2017 To be fair, it looks like the deal is as good as done. The most interesting part of the story is the reports that Werder allegedly have a successor and want to present him as soon as Gnabry's deal is officially confirmed.
nudge Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 It's official, Serge Gnabry will leave Werder at the end of this month. His destination is undisclosed yet, rumoured to be either Hoffenheim or Bayern, reported transfer fee 8-10m. Finally it's over.
Rick Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 Not exactly a great return is it? I've also read somewhere that Kruse can leave for about 12m...be fucking daft to let two of your best players to fuck off for 20m or less.
nudge Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 It's daft to agree to put such buyout clauses into player contracts anyway, always hated it. Kruse intends to stay though. I think half a season of good performances got into Gnabry's head a bit; at the end of the season he didn't look like he was giving his all on the pitch and his selfish actions often led to lost balls in midfield and dangerous counterattacks and conceded goals, thus he was benched for a while and we did well without him; I don't think he took it well. He's a very talented player, but he is still developing, and I think in the end it will turn out to be a wrong decision for him, especially if it's Bayern he's joining, way too early for that and I think he'd end up on the bench or not even in the squad just like at Arsenal. For us, it's definitely a loss of quality, no doubt about that. I do have high hopes for Florian Kainz to step up and impress as the creative force in our midfield next season though.

Where players mostly are sold for what they're worth or less if they want to leave. You can't ask for 20 mil for shit cunts like Adam Johnson or 30 year old Peter Crouch.
nudge Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 Yet Freiburg get 20m for Philipp. Anyway, we've always been a bit shite at getting the most out of the transfers of our best players. Özil for 18m, Klose for 15m, Pizarro for 8m, Sokratis for 9m is ridiculous. Even Diego at his prime should really have gotten us more than 25m.
Devil-Dick Willie Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 We made over 25 mil out of ozil after bonuses, the pay out from real, and the sell on fee when they sold him to Arsenal.
nudge Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 I'm not sure about the bonuses, but I know we barely got 15-18m transfer fee when he moved to Real and then 0.5m as the sell on fee when he joined Arsenal, I can't imagine we got additional 8-10m from bonuses? Even if we did, that means the payments were spread out and it wasn't invested in the squad anyway... EDIT: after doing a bit of research, it seems we got 15.5m transfer fee + 1.5m bonus + 0.5m sell on fee
Moderator Tommy Posted June 11, 2017 Author Moderator Posted June 11, 2017 https://www.tz.de/sport/fc-bayern/transfergeruecht-serge-gnabry-wechselt-zum-fc-bayern-muenchen-7322759.html He'll sign a 3 year contract with Bayern München.
Devil-Dick Willie Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 Good luck I guess. I think he should have stayed a season so he could score 15 goals and get us more money develop his skills and get more first team game time. But whatever floats his boat.
nudge Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 Bad decision, I don't think he'll get much playing time at Bayern, definitely hasn't learned from his time at Arsenal... I would have understood if he moved to Hoffenheim, but Bayern? Way too early.
Rick Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 Stupid move. Bet he starts less than 7 league games next season.
Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted June 11, 2017 Subscriber Posted June 11, 2017 I Mean for the money I understand it from our end but it makes no sense for him there's no way he cracks our lineup. Maybe a loan move is to follow hence the 3 year deal?
