The next best team was Leipzig just a year ago, they got their manager and defender, this year it was Dortmund, which lost Haaland as well, so the upcoming year it will be simple again, whoever gets even a little bit better ends up with losing important pieces which makes things easier for Bayern all over again.
They are like supportive opponent for Bayern. Growing young players up, making them to become new stars in Bundesliga and Europe. Bayern knock their doors and their star players move to Munich. The attraction of Bayern and their strong finance make them stronger and in one perspective, it is good for Bundesliga because Bayern are very good representative of Bundesliga in Champions League. They are the best club of Bundesliga in Champions League.
Oh, I still think that Bayern Munich would have been happy to keep Lewandowski for another season before the end of his contract, which, however, the club was originally going to do, it's just that the striker himself is no longer enthusiastic about such a prospect and would like to change the club and the environment.
Bayern don't want to give a long contract with old players and they don't want to give Lewandowski exception. Lewandowski still knows he is at top level and he is ambitious with titles and does not accept low salary. They can not meet each other in this deal so it is better for both to separate in this case.
I had more expectations from Leipzig this season, but the club failed the first half of the season and so we saw the classics of the genre again, when the only competitor of the Bavarian giant was the club from Dortmund. Until Dortmund changes its strategy of making money by selling players, then I think Munich can be calm about this particular competitor.
Leipzig must have very good strategy to keep their star players in the club and find young players as replacements in case star players move to other clubs. Youth players no matter they are home-grown or bought, are future of the club. Leipzig looks like to do it better than Stuggart, Wolfsburg, etc. in the past. They are growing like Dortmund and if they can maintain it, they will build up their position in top 3 of Bundesliga.
