you really mean it. The club President Uli Hoeness pretentious as “the biggest investment programme in the history of the club” announced the transfer of planning of FC Bayern München takes on concrete forms. On Wednesday, the German Champions announced that defender Lucas Hernández will change in the summer for 80 million euros to Munich. The Frenchman is on the 13th place of the most expensive Transfers in football history. It is the highest transfer fee for a defender of all times. And the most expensive player in Bundesliga history Hernández is anyway.

Bayern are entering a new dimension. Hernández is twice as expensive as Corentin Tolisso, their most expensive purchase. The cost two years ago, with 41.5 million, almost half. The person responsible for Hoeness want to prove to the football world with the record of the transfer of two things. First of all, We are in the position financially with the big clubs like Real Madrid and Manchester United to compete. Both of them were supposedly also interested in the 22-year-old Hernández. Second: A season like the present must not happen again. Still, the battle for the championship is open, from the Champions League, Munich have already been eliminated.

Hudson-Odoi and Havertz is yet to come

In the transfer of the summer a year ago, the Bayern back, only Serge Gnabry, Leon Goretzka and Alphonso Davies were committed. Renato Sanches returned. Thus, they could not compensate for the injury, such as Arjen Robben and Kingsley Coman. For the Bundesliga, the current vulnerability of Bavaria is healing. After six Munich Championships in a row, it is for the first time in an exciting title fight.

However, it could remain a one-year interruption of the Bavarian domination. Because if the Munich continue as it was announced, then Dortmund can train so many young talents – the money from the South will prevail again. And Bayern still have a lot to spend. To the previous commitments of Hernández and Benjamin Pavard (for 35 million euros from Stuttgart) star players for the midfield. To Chelsea’s Talent Cullum Hodson-Odoi Bayern excavators, months ago, 40 million euros is likely to be too little. And then Kai Havertz is. For the biggest German football talent of Bayer Leverkusen allegedly 100 million euros.
