In the last 10 big transfers from Benfica and Porto (Fabio Coentrão, Axel Witsel, Javi Garcia, Hulk, Ramires, Di Maria, David Luiz, Falcao, Ricardo Quaresma, Lisandro Lopez) only 3 are from brazil. So that's not quite accurate
And the players that are in the making, aiming for big transfers (Garay, Matic, Salvio, Gaitan, James, Mangala, Jackson, Moutinho), none of them are from brazil

And so begins the end of the golden age of dortmund

Maybe Dortmund will get KDB like the rumors state?
Man, what the heck. So if this is true, not only will Bayern already have a ridiculous amount of young talent in Germany, but they'll also be adding Gotze, Jan Kirchoff, and possibly Lewandowski. Will Pep even have to try to win with that team?

Did you just register to say this? ._. And yeah, looks like he does have a release clause of £30m in his contract (which I'm guessing comes out to 37m in Euros?).

Pleeease let this be wrong. Götze leaving could very well end up causing a chain reaction, prompting players like Hummels and Gündogan to jump ship as well. As good as KDB may be, he isn't going to adequately replace Götze at all (and at a rumoured pricetag of 17m, pretty costly as well for a player that hasn't really achieved anything yet)

Well its unfair to just say Brazillians but South Americans in general is a different story. Portugal is by far the best entry way

Portugal is where decent players go to become great players imo. Both Benfica and Porto in particular have done a crazy good job the last half a decade especially with respect to South Americans.
Taking the wonder kids out of South America and throwing them into top clubs straight away is so risky. It often ends up wasting a huge chunk of the players development stage and the club doesn't get much out of it either,
Want your South American done right ? Send him to Portugal. Its obvious they know their shit, develope good players and seem to profit when they let them go dont seem to mind it to much either

All the 'secondary leagues' produce talent- portugal, france, netherlands. Their existence really serves to help the 'major' leagues if you want to call them that.
Have any of the prem teams tabled an offer for Götze? He's definitely worth in that region if one factors in the inflation of prices in modern football. He will be best served playing for Bayern though so it would come down to money offers/ his feelings about moving to England.
|
I feel like Götze shouldn't leave Dortmund. He plays regularly, will also play next year in the CL and thus he will be collecting experience on the highest level. At Bayern he would be at a big risk to warm the bench.

I'm a little skeptical on the Goetze transfer until more info comes out. He's signed until 2016 and there's no way BVB would choose to sell him to Bayern, so until more info comes out, I'm waiting on judgment.
Furthermore, doesn't a player need to agree to be transferred (as in you can't just trade people like you can in U.S. sports)? This is my understanding of the system; you have to offer the player an agreeable contract to get him transferred to you. He agreed in March (as in a month ago) to an extension with BVB. Why would he suddenly agree to go to Bayern, even if BVB is forced to accept a transfer fee?

This is one of the worst qualities about football. An entire nation's national competition can serve as a "development" place for people so they can go to where the "real competition" is. It keeps this sport so un-competitive.

Of course a player has to agree to the transfer. This isn't a slave market. I too don't see Götze leaving Dortmund, as they will continue fighting for trophies domestically and internationally.

You say that with an "of course" tone, but do you realize how trades work in the States when it comes to sports?

Meh, if anyone in Germany can survive it, it's Dortmund. I think they will be okay as long as they have Klopp. Even if they lose more players, they will make a fortune in transfer fees and be able to get new players. They'll still have a wealth of young talent with Lewandowski, Hummels, Reus, Bender, Pisczek (no clue how to spell that), Subotic, etc., and more hot prospects we have seen much of yet like Moritz Leitner.
Plus they have the money from a deep UCL run and a stadium that holds 80,000 people (their matchday revenue must be ridiculous).

I call bullshit on this Götze news. I think this is a distraction move of Bild and Bayern (Hoeneß) to take some media focus off Hoeneß. Hoeneß has been a dominating topic in the German media since he has put himself under police investigation because of tax dodging.
Edit: And ofc I hope Götze doesn't leave Dortmund...^^ Edit2: Everything I read counters my idea from above...  Edit3: It's official. Dortmund stated 4 minutes ago, that Götze is making use of his release clause
|
Holy shit it's real. 0_o
Apart from that: Considering that Götze is perfectly capable of playing a false 9, a preferred system of Guardiola, this transfer makes perfect sense. Also, Robben and probably Gomez may very well leave Bayern. I also don't see any problem in Bayern buying him; it's basically like Martinez: If you have a fixed transfer clause in the contract, it may get used and you shouldn't complain. While 40m for Martinez certainly seemed somewhat safe to shoo away most interested clubs, I'm wondering why Dortmund settled for only 37m (if that's correct) for Götze. The timing is a bit awkward now, though :/
|
I went to bed with the hope of its being a fake and now its confirmed. Seriously, Götze will get shitstormed so hard on every media. I would hope that he willl play no more Game for Dortmund, he is a fucking JUDAS! It wouldn't be so hard if he would go to a real Club like ManU/Real or Barca... but Bayern, WTF! GET OUT JUDAS!

Sky Sports just confirmed it's a done deal.
Bayern Munich agree £32m(€37m) deal to sign Mario Goetze from Borussia DortmundBorussia Dortmund have confirmed that Germany midfielder Mario Goetze will join Bundersliga rivals Bayern Munich in a £32m(€37m) deal.
More to come!Source
Lol oh dear, Guillem Balague adding fuel to the fire (Spanish Reporter, follows Pep extensively those who don't know) by saying Lewandowski has already signed for another club....Also Bayern Munchen ^_^
Guillem Balague @GuillemBalague
and Lewandowski seems to be going the same direction. English clubs have been told not to bother with him as he has agreed with another club
|
Seriously...what the fuck? For crying out loud, why? Is it the money, or more likely, Pep? Not happy with this...
