Mats Hummels Returns to Borussia Dortmund

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.

Doubt it, they will take Bayerns left over with pleasure. 

Except that his best years were at Dortmund; same with Götze. The only player to step up his game after leaving Dortmund was Lewandowski.

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

£17,000,000 is a lot less than £31,500,000.

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.

20m and Euro not Pound.

Fair enough. 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.

£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.
