Bayern's restructuring plan has been in preparation for half a year.
Ever since Hoeness was promoted to chairman of the supervisory board and Nellinger took over as sporting director, Bayern has been making every effort to promote restructuring.
This group of management who understands football knows very well that if they want to prevent the team from resting on its laurels, the best way is to undergo drastic reorganization.
If you don’t want to be revolutionized by others, you can only revolutionize yourself!
But reorganization is also a profound knowledge.
Just like on the front line, Su Dong's departure from the team is not necessarily a bad thing for Bayern.
Ribery and Robben both have ambitions, but when Su Dong was on the team, they had no chance to show their desire in this regard. At the tactical level, they could only choose to cooperate with Su Dong unconditionally.
Although Su Dong is not the indiscriminate shooter like Ronnie, and he often rewards his teammates, the number one card is the number one card. When Ribery and Robben attack, they can only follow Su Dong's footsteps.
After Su Dong left the team, both of them must have been holding back their energy and wanted to take the opportunity to prove themselves. They will definitely continue to maintain their fighting power in the future, and may even perform better than before and take the opportunity to rise to the top.
Of course, there are risks.
In the past, Su Dong was suppressing them, and they were both very good. But now that Su Dong is gone, neither of them can accept the other, so they can only compete on the court. Even if they are not careful, the two of them will go off and go into conflict in the locker room.
Conflicts can be very troublesome.
Without Su Dong in the frontcourt, the offensive firepower was greatly affected. The introduction of Gomez only barely stopped the loss.
The combination of Schweinsteiger, Modric and Mascherano has been Bayern's main midfielder in the past few years and has performed very well. But now, Mascherano has been linked to Barcelona, Real Madrid and other wealthy teams.
At the same time, Bayern became nervous.
Xiaozhu will definitely stay on the team. If Mascherano leaves, Modric will definitely not be able to leave. Moreover, Bayern will introduce Brazilian midfielder Gustavo from Hoffenheim, plus a Timoshcu.
Gram can just fill Mascherano's vacancy.
Hoffenheim's Gustavo is worth 15 million euros, while Bayern's asking price for Mascherano is 30 million euros.
In other words, every time they enter and exit, Bayern earns 15 million euros.
More importantly, Gustavo is three years younger than Mascherano, and his annual salary is also lower.
For the Bundesliga, there is really not much difference between Gustavo and Mascherano. The former also proved his strength and value at Hoffenheim.
The same is true for the defense. Pepe and Marcelo left, and Bayern directly promoted the youth team.
Regarding Bayern's series of operations, from a business perspective, I have to admit that it is indeed very shrewd and can even be said to be extremely valuable.
Because after this wave of metabolism, the average age of the team has been much lower, the annual salary pressure has also been reduced a lot, and the club has been able to make a lot of money in the transfer market, which can be said to be a fruitful harvest.
As for the weakening of the overall strength, Bayern has no suspense in the Bundesliga anyway. As for the Champions League, the quarter-finals will definitely be no problem. As for the semi-finals and finals, Bayern is still confident of making it.
Therefore, in this wave of operations, Bayern has won!
…
After listening to the introductions of Mendes and Ma Dawei, Su Dong smiled and shook his head.
"Only in the Bundesliga would Bayern dare to do this!".
To sell so many young stars in one summer, which team in the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A would dare to do this?
But in the Bundesliga, Bayern does this.
In the final analysis, Bayern's management of the Bundesliga is so great that it has simply turned the entire Bundesliga into their rear area.
For example, Gustavo, this player is really strong and is a key player for Hoffenheim.
In other leagues, who would sell such a player easily?
But in the Bundesliga, if Bayern wants to buy, Hoffenheim will buy, and the players also want to leave.
These are unimaginable in other leagues, but in the Bundesliga, they seem to be very logical.
Bundesliga teams seem to naturally believe that Bayern, the big brother, will lead them to success.
"After Modric's recruitment failed, Guardiola wanted to sign your younger brother, Moutinho from Sporting Lisbon."
Mendes sighed lightly, "Sporting Lisbon's current situation is not very good. Porto also wants to buy Moutinho. Manchester City asked me to negotiate. The transfer fee is estimated to be around 10 million euros."
Su Dong nodded slightly, Sporting Lisbon's situation has not improved over the years.
Back then, they sold Sudong and Ronnie, then Pepe, and now Moutinho, it's all the same.
This is how Sporting Lisbon survives. It’s just that it used to sell to teams in the four major leagues, but now it can only sell to Porto. In the end, it’s still a bit of a step back.
But what can be done?
The Portuguese Super League is now dominated by Porto.
Su Dong didn't have much affection for Sporting Lisbon, so he didn't think too much about it, but quickly thought of another thing.
"Jorge, please send a copy of Toni Kroos' information to Guardiola later."
Mendes was stunned. He knew Toni Kroos, but this player could not play the main role in Bayern Munich or the German national team.
"This kid is very good, he looks like Xavi. Guardiola should like him," Su Dong said with a smile.
After joining Manchester City, he naturally hopes that Manchester City can rise as soon as possible, and he should also provide suggestions for the coaching staff.
If Modric stays on the team, it will be difficult for Toni Kroos to find a place in Bayern. Given his age, a loan is likely to be a way out, but he does not have Bastian Schweinsteiger, Thomas Muller, etc. for Bayern.
Such deep feelings.
Speaking of which, he joined Bayern at the same time as Su Dong.
More importantly, Su Dong had a very good relationship with him and was willing to lend a helping hand to him when he was not getting what he wanted.
As for Bayern, they won't mind this kind of thing.

…………
The news of Su Dong's arrival in London was quickly captured by media reporters.
But then, he seemed to have evaporated and completely disappeared.
Everyone, including media reporters, basically believed that he took a flight back to Europe after watching the World Cup in South Africa, and the flight happened to arrive in London.
But after meeting Mendes and Ma Dawei, Su Dong rested in London for the night and set off north the next morning.
Su Dong did not go directly to Manchester this time, but went to Cheshire and quietly stayed at Ronnie's house.
The day after arriving in Cheshire, Manchester City chairman Mubarak, general manager Soriano, technical director Begiristain, and head coach Guardiola all quietly visited.
The two parties met at Ronnie's home in Cheshire, with Wang Chuqing, Mendes and Ma Dawei all in attendance.
The purpose of this meeting was very simple. Manchester City elaborated on its various preparations for Su Dong's arrival from all aspects.
Soriano analyzed it from a commercial perspective and said that Manchester City's commercial department, especially its commercial operation capabilities, is indeed not as good as that of giants such as Real Madrid, Manchester United and Bayern, but the team attaches great importance to it and he is also increasing the formation of a commercial team.
Strength.
For example, this summer, Manchester City arranged a summer training camp in the United States with the purpose of expanding Manchester City's influence in the North American market, but this will take some time.
After all, Manchester City's past foundation was too weak and it would be difficult to compete with these giant teams in a short period of time.
If nothing else, Chelsea proposed a vigorous profit plan that year, and even hired Peter Kenyon from Manchester United. What was the final result?
Soriano is an old friend of Su Dong's. Su Dong is very aware of his abilities. He has always been a pragmatic person, so Su Dong naturally believes in the plan he proposed.
Mubarak promised on behalf of Mansour that the most important task of the Abu Dhabi consortium operating Manchester City is not to make money, but to build a top giant. He hopes that Su Dong can lead Manchester City to complete such a transformation.
Begiristain is in charge of the technical aspect. He said that the team's signings are progressing smoothly. The plan to introduce Maicon failed, and the club has set its sights on Arsenal's Sania.
"But there is a problem. After Sagna was injured last season, his condition has never been restored. Wenger is not satisfied with him and is considering bringing in Azpilicueta from Osasuna in La Liga to compete with him.
."
"Azpilicueta is also under our consideration. This Spanish right back is very dynamic on the wing and performed very well. In addition, we also have a young player on loan. Trippier and Josep are very optimistic about it.
he."
Transfer is actually a war!
In addition to the right back, the plan to introduce midfielder Modric also basically failed.
"The latest news is that Mascherano is likely to move to Barcelona. Mourinho has made up his mind to gamble on a Champions League this season. Yaya Toure is not stable enough and he wants Mascherano, so
,Bayern will basically not let Modric go."
As for the introduction of Marcelo and Pepe, Manchester City has been making progress, and negotiations with Bayern have also been ongoing.
Both players have expressed this intention to Bayern through their agent Mendes, and Bayern also intends to sell players to support local young players to rise to the top. It can be said that the two sides hit it off, and the remaining issue is the transfer fee.
But for Manchester City, the transfer fee is actually not a big problem.
Although Begiristain did not say dead, it is basically certain that these two players are already Manchester City players.
…
Su Dong is still very satisfied with Manchester City's signings.
He is very unfamiliar with the Premier League environment and only knows that competition is fierce.
But with Manchester City's current recruitment efforts, I believe the probability of reaching the Champions League in the new season is still high.
As for fighting for the league championship in the Premier League, it's really hard to say.
Guardiola briefly introduced to Su Dong the tactics he customized specifically for Su Dong. It was still his iconic four-three-three, with Di Maria and Sanchez playing on the wings, responsible for opening up the space for Su Dong.
In defense, David Silva is in charge in the middle, and Busquets is responsible for organizing and sorting out the defense.
Originally the other one was Modric, but now, we have to reconsider.
Su Dong also put forward some of his own opinions, including some of his playing habits and his suggestions for the team's tactics.
If it were anyone else, Guardiola might not be able to listen, but with Su Dong's current identity and status, Guardiola would still be able to listen.
In addition, he also made a rather difficult request to Su Dong.
