FC Bayern beat the top European competition several times this summer and signed top stars like Sadio Mané and Matthijs de Ligt. Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp is not really surprised by Munich’s recent transfers.
With Sadio Mané, FC Bayern signed a real world star this summer, who was also on the wish lists of Paris Saint-Germain and FC Barcelona. Liverpool would also have liked to keep the Senegalese. However, after six years with the Reds, the 30-year-old was looking for a new sporting challenge.
According to LFC trainer Jürgen Klopp, the move to Bayern Munich went smoothly: “Sadio told us early on that he would like to change. If there is one or more interested parties, a reasonable price is paid, then it’s a deal. If it were always like that, it would just be cool,” he said in an interview with “kicker”.
“You shouldn’t underestimate the appeal of FC Bayern”
The 55-year-old is not really surprised that FCB made several top transfers this summer: “From a German perspective, you shouldn’t make the mistake of underestimating FC Bayern’s appeal.” Accordingly, you have significantly better chances in Munich winning titles more regularly than in Turin or Amsterdam.
In addition to the sporting appeal, the Bundesliga and the city of Munich are also plus points for the record champions: “In addition, the city is beautiful. Germany, Bayern provide security. It is not the case in all leagues that what has been agreed is there. Bayern are world class and rock solid, which is why they are also one of the most successful clubs in the world.”
