Just imagine that Dortmund doesn't have the selling mentality and see what their squad and their legendary squad will look lik, let's just try to mention
- Lewandoski
- Aubameyang
- Sancho
- Haaland
- Bellingham
I know I have omitted many but the fact is that Dortmund doesn't want to build for long. They are simply doing what they are used to doing and what they think gives them results.
Borussia Dortmund would have been a great team if they hadn't sold these players. But when Real Madrid or Bayern Munich make the players a transfer offer, the players are affected. If I was a Borussia Dortmund player, I would immediately accept a transfer offer from Bayern Munich or Real Madrid, because playing for bigger teams means winning more trophies and having a better career. Lewandoski won many trophies at Bayern Munich. Haaland won both the English Premier League and the Champions League in his first year at Manchester City. Had Haaland stayed at Borussia Dortmund, maybe he would never have won the Champions League.
I agree with you, that's what big clubs always offer their target players, apart from big salaries, the chance to win trophies in every competition. In addition to success as a team, individual awards also follow naturally. Only a few players stay and are loyal to their club, and I think that is very natural because it provides mutual benefits. In terms of transfer policies, sometimes we cannot see it from just one point of view. Dortmund has turned itself into a stage for young players to rise to the level, and quite a few of them have moved back to the club that has made its name.
