Seeing Dortmund policies in the transfer window sometimes makes us annoyed, and one of the most annoying of their policies is releasing their players to direct rivals. In many aspects, Bayern is very profitable because they recruited a lot of players from Dortmund, and overall there are many star players who have been released by Dortmund, and they only hope for instant profits.
Dortmund journey to reach the Champions League final last season felt like luck, because they took an easier route than Madrid. Next season, with Nuri Sahin as the new manager, it seems Dortmund will find it difficult to record the same performance. Reus and Hummels are certain to leave Dortmund, and as usual Dortmund management will move to recruit other talented young players.
Every season we will definitely see Dortmund main star go to another team at a great price, but the strange thing is that they have always been able to continue to orbit new star players to their main squad so far, Haaland, Lewandowski, Bellingham and Sancho are players who have managed to develop and in the end are sold to other teams, for now Dortmund always sell their star players but I think we also have to understand why they have done so far, Dortmund is not a rich team in the Bundesliga even financially, they are still worse than the current team like leipzig and stuttgart, so indeed to stabilize finances of course selling players is one of their solutions to survive.
The sale of players to rival teams has of course made Dortmund weaker and that is what they should be avoiding at the moment, but it seems that in the last two seasons we no longer find Dortmund players bought by Munich, because Dortmund has reportedly confirmed that no more Dortmund players will be sold to Bayern Munich, about Dortmund success in qualifying for the Champions League final, It looks like luck, but I think it's the result of Dortmund hard work and unyielding spirit.
