Either that or the player decided for himself the next step for his career should be Dortmund." Håaland completed his transfer to Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund a couple of days before the January 2020 winter transfer window for a fee reported to be in the region of €20 million, signing a four-and-a-half-year contract "
Thats cheaper than most of our back up players !
Why couldn't we sign and loan him to Dortmund ?
Or sign him and let him compete with Jesus ?
What were Txiki, Pep & full time scouts doing when this opportunity was there ?
He's not a mercenary. He hired Raiola to find a club where he could be a regular starter and that are great at developing talents. Dortmund are probably the most famous club in the world for developing talents and they had a glaring hole at striker. Dortmund was probably his nr 1 choice by a landslide, they also let him have cheap buyout clause for summer 2021" Håaland completed his transfer to Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund a couple of days before the January 2020 winter transfer window for a fee reported to be in the region of €20 million, signing a four-and-a-half-year contract "

Because Lewandowski is quite literally the most allround striker in the world?
Both Lewa and Kimmich arrived after PepYup. Bayern was ready for Pep ball from day one unlike us in 2016. Lewa as the best allround striker + Alaba and Kimmich as the best inverted fullbacks in the world (both natural midfielders)
Yeah Pep arrived in 2013, Lewa in 2014 and Kimmich in 2015Both Lewa and Kimmich arrived after Pep
They did have Lahm though who was quite decent himself.Yeah Pep arrived in 2013, Lewa in 2014 and Kimmich in 2015
