Subscriber Viva la FCB+ 2,547 Posted June 15, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted June 15, 2019 Im not sure how I feel about this, on one hand it makes sense with Sule, Pavard and Hernandez being here but he played really well in the back half of the season and it wouldn't leave us with much experience in our backline. The rumours really picked up steam in the last twenty four hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry 1,437 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Do the Dortmund fans harbour ill will towards him? Second of the recent acquisitions of Bayern from Dortmund to be sent back within a few years.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUFC 1,495 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Never rated him during Dortmunds great years under Klopp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except that his best years were at Dortmund; same with Götze. The only player to step up his game after leaving Dortmund was Lewandowski. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick 2,271 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 To buy him back for nearly what they sold him for is bad business. He didn't exactly set the world alight in Munich. Poor business from Dortmund, they need to stop holding onto the past with these ex players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when a few years of player price inflation is taken into account. Van Dijk has set a 75m bar for a world class defender. It was 50% lower when Hummels was sold, making the original number a decent fee and the return figure pretty cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still don't think he's going to benefit Dortmund in the long run, but for a couple years he may be a decent stop gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Viva la FCB+ 2,547 Posted June 19, 2019 Author Subscriber Share Posted June 19, 2019 Sad to see him go, kicker is claiming €38m was the price in the end, I'll take it I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6666 1,310 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 £34m (according to the Guardian) is definitely a great price for Bayern to get for him. I'm assuming Dortmund saw his return as ideal as they needed to improve their defence and he could slot straight into the team without needing a long time to adapt to the club. He's a lesser player than when he left so we'll see how that goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
