Dortmund summer sale is beginning already it seems;

Manchester City 'in advanced talks to sign Ilkay Gundogan' from Borussia Dortmund
Sky sources understand City have indicated a willingness to pay £28.3m (€35m) for Gundogan, although Dortmund value the player at £36.4m (€45m).

Source


I predict;
Reus to Liverpool
Augamon to Real
Hummels to wherever he wants
Just read Miki was in same discussion with Hummels and Gundogan too

But it's ok as Gotze will return for them :D

Every year the media predicts Dortmund will lose like five key players. And so far every year only one really important player has left.
With Gündogan´s, Hummels´and Micki´s contract expiring that could change for sure, but i´m pretty positive that the latter two will stay. I could even imagine keeping Micki here for one year and let him go for free as we did with Lewandowski, if we have no other choice. He wont bring in as much money as Hummels and is our most important offensive player.
Reus und Auba have three and four years left on their contracts and both did resign not long ago. No way any of them is leaving. Worst case would be three players leaving.
Even thought i would be very interested in seeing what Tuchel/Zorc would do with all that money.

Hummels Miki and Gundogan all quoted as talking to eachother about their futures. With Gundogan saying he is off now, you would think the other two are going to follow. Miki being lined up with Juve

I don't necessarily want to [leave], but I have to make a big decision. I have been back and forth a lot," Hummels told Bild on Sunday.

"Age gives you a feeling that you don't have forever to win. I realise in every year I don't win a title, I'm closer to retiring.

"I've spoken to Ilkay Gündogan and Henrikh Mkhitaryan over their thoughts. The Champions League is a target for me in any case. I want to win this title."


Is the quotes btw, which why i think all 3 of those are now going to leave.

Swansea City are the subject of an advanced takeover bid by American duo Steve Kaplan and Jason Levien, the club confirmed on Saturday.

Kaplan, the co-founder of Oaktree Capital Group and vice chairman of the NBA's Memphis Grizzlies, and D.C. United managing general partner Levien are finalising an agreement to purchase a controlling interest in the club.

Sources told ESPN.com that Kaplan and Levien, who partnered in Memphis when Levien served as the Grizzlies' CEO, have built a strong relationship with longtime Swansea chairman Huw Jenkins, as well as the club's board of directors and leaders in their supporters' trust.

The pair are nearing completion on a deal that would give their investment group a majority share in the club while keeping the well-regarded Jenkins in place as CEO and their co-chairman.

Reus turned down Bayern and you predict him to go to Liverpool? XD

not that far fetched for a dortmund player to favor liverpool over bayern because a) going to bayern means he will be super hated by his current fans and he might not be happy about that and b) because dortmund players are likely to like working under Klopp.

Not saying that I agree with the prediction, and I would assume that players from every team that is not dortmund would in general prefer going to bayern over going to liverpool, but specifically for dortmund players, it makes some sense.

When/where did Gündogan announce that he'll leave? It's the same story we're hearing for 3 years and I don't doubt it's going to happen this summer but I didn't read anything official yet!?

Reus and Auba aren't that likely to leave. We'll have enough transfer work to do already so there's no time to think about selling people with 4 years of contract.

Given that kind of reasoning there is 0 reason to ever go to Liverpool. Real and Juve make sense. City maybe (assuming they make CL). But Liverpool?

Another thing that you have to remember about Dortmund is, that if you as a player want to pressure the management it's probably the best chance you'll ever get. During the last 5 years we won 2 championships, 1 national cup and made a cl-final. Yet we paid about as much for our squad as Schalke and Wolfsburg did who achieved nothing and close to nothing in the same time frame.

Three of the best players negotiate new contracts and it's going to be Tuchels first summer in which he knows the team and has enough time and insight to plan his transfers.
Watzke does not want to spend alot of money on a single player but now is the time you might get him to spend a bit more.

Why would a succesful player EVER go to City? I mean, Barca/ Real/ Bayern sure. Everyone understands that... but CITY??
Sure you make more money than in 99% other clubs, but i feel as a succesful, intelligent player who wants to win titles...just No

For next season, it sure doesn't look like a bad move though :o
Become City's Xavi with probably 2-3 other big signings and have a shot at every big title under one of the best managers... I wouldn't call that a bad move!
