Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

now it's fixed. or not ?  Bayern München has a new sports director, Christoph Freund, who starts in München on 1 September.
Christoph Freund was previously with Red Bull Salzburg and takes over the job from Hasan Salihamidžić.

Never ever have heard that Name and i dont know him and how he was doing in Red Bull Salzburg.
Starting on the first of September is exactly the same date when the transfer window is closing.
So i dont know if he can make something in this short of time in Bayern Munich.

now it's fixed. or not ?  Bayern München has a new sports director, Christoph Freund, who starts in München on 1 September.
Christoph Freund was previously with Red Bull Salzburg and takes over the job from Hasan Salihamidžić.
Hasan Salihamidžić was sacked shortly after the end of the season.
Bayern München have not yet confirmed this change. but many many news channels are reporting on it today.

Almost every news portal is reporting that Bayern Munich has appointed a new sports director, Christoph Freund. I think this is true. Because obviously, they were going to put a question mark at the end of the title if it wasn’t confirmed right? They are absolutely claiming that the news is true. So I believe it is done.

Let me also say that I have not personally fact-checked any of the news or tails. But I just googled “did Bayern Munich appoint a new sports director?” Almost everything and every news article said that, yes they did. Just for reference, I am giving the link below.

Bayern Munich appoint Christoph Freund as new sporting director

I also heard Bayern Munich fired CEO Oliver Kahn, not just Hasan Salihamidzic. Oliver Kahn was also fiercely criticized for pushing central striker Robert Lewandowski to Barcelona last year. This has resulted in the club having a tumultuous season. They soon failed in the German Cup and Champions League. In the Bundesliga, Bayern almost lost the championship to Dortmund. Their 11th Bundesliga title wasn't enough to cover their almost failed season. That is what the duo Oliver Kahn - Salihamidzic has to pay after this year's season ends. Let's wait and see if those rumors are official or not.

PSG is no longer targeting Harry Kane since he isn't intended to join them, they are following Vlahovic for the moment. For Bayern Munich, Kane will be a nice pick and they are willing to sign him. The only things that might be the problem is how easy could Spurs stuff accept his departure from the team.

PSG really wanted Harry Kane but Harry doesn't want to go to them. At the moment I think the deal between them to become Bayern Munich players is complete and they are just waiting for the Spurs to sell Kane for a reasonable fee. I hope they can do this. If he stays with the Spurs for another year, he may not be able to focus on the games due to the failed transfer.

Kane, is currently selling well and is in great demand by many big clubs. but so far, no one has attempted to make a formal offer to Spurs for Kane. except, Bayern Munich. I also read several news media reports of PSG's interest in Harry Kane. even if PSG intend to pay Kane the price Spurs want, they will have no problem. it's just that, it seems that Kane is not interested in this French giant club.

As reported by the Telegraph. PSG doesn't need to bother knowing that Kane has no intention of moving to PSG. the newspaper said Kane had "no interest" in joining PSG and would instead prefer a move to Germany with Bayern Munich. if PSG put forward a concrete proposal, it is thought that Kane will "turn down" the offer. especially if I refer to Romano's reports in recent weeks, Bayern seem to have an agreement with Kane. the thing is, Bayern have yet to resubmit their new bid. although reportedly, the Spurs will do all they can to keep kane. well, if Kane says that he's not going to sign a new contract and Spurs will begrudgingly let him go. well, let's just wait.

Leipzig reached an agreement to bring in Xavi Simons from PSG and he will be loaned to Leipzig until 2024. He is a young player who is still only 20 years old and this looks like a pretty good transfer for Leipzig to add power to his attack line. He can play the role of AMF, LWF, or RWF and with his creativity, the options for Leipzig's strategy are wider. But unfortunately he can only be loaned for one season and there is no purchase option clause in his contract. Xavi Simons is likely to fill the place previously left by Dominik Szoboszlai, who previously joined Liverpool this summer.

I don't really know why such a player such as Mane could be having issues with a great club as Bayern Munich, they don't want him any more but why go for someone you know quite alright that it won't take up to a year to get tired of him? Mane is a good player and if Bayern Munich are planning on getting rid of the player I feel he should return back to the EPL. He has better memories over there and he can do better, I wish Chelsea or Arsenal could get his signature now that he can go anywhere he wants, it's going to be a great addition to the any of these teams (Chelsea or Arsenal).

Last season was the worst season for Sadio Mane at Bayern Munich from injury problems to a feud with one of his colleagues. Maybe no one thought that this problem was also an obstacle to the decreased performance he was experiencing. I think even if he stays at Bayern Munich over time he still won't feel comfortable in the squad. Moreover, he probably won't get into Tuchel's concoction of strategy.

The truth that the Premier League will be a place he misses has some truth to it and joining one of those teams could be a great option. However, I don't see that Arsenal or Chelsea will be interested in recruiting him considering he is getting older and the two London teams are currently focusing on overhauling the squad which will all be filled with players under 30 years old.

When Sadio Mane joined Bayern Munich they were expecting to see a player like Lewandowski become a top scorer and since Sadio Mane scored many goals and had a good performance in Liverpool we were right to expect something like that from Sadio Mane but it seems he couldn't show the good performance we wanted to see from him and that's normal to see him even leaving Bayern Munich.

Dortmund don't look like active in the transfer market these days. I'm checking Transfermarkt regularly for new transfer news and rumours but there is no fresh rumour about Dortmund. Jadon Sancho, Cole Palmer and Edson Alvarez have been the most recent rumours for them. But I don't know if they will refresh their interest in any of these players in the coming days.

Sancho can't adapt to Manchester United well as far as I have seen. Maybe a return might be possible. But on the other hand he is playing in the Premier League and for one of top teams there. This would still cause him to think twice before deciding to go back to Dortmund.

Cole Palmer would be a great signing for Dortmund to improve his skills more by finding more chances. This can be beneficial for both sides in the long run.

Hold on a minute, what are you saying concerning Mane?
How many seasons has he played for the Bayern Munich side? He just got in the squad and they're acting desperate of getting the UCL like what are they expecting from a guy who just started with a new team new atmosphere, come on, to me I feel there's something we really don't know about the Bayern Munich decision on letting Mane go. Mane is a very good player which he showcase at Liverpool so I think they're not telling us something or the reason why.
If he makes a move to any club I'd like it better but I'd prefer he goes to a place where he can compete for trophies like the UCL to enable him being shortlisted for the Ballon dor.

Sadio Mane quality is quite good and everyone recognizes it when he was still with Liverpool where he was one of the most impressive players at that time. But Sadio Mane seemed to find a form that was not too good when he joined Bayern Munich last season, so that Bayern Munch took a stand to release Sadio Mane in this transfer window. Indeed I agree with you that if Tuchel gives time for Sadio Mane to find his best form next season then I'm sure Sadio Mane can do it.

A player sometimes needs time to adapt to the team's style of play and it is common for a team to provide support for the player to rediscover his sharpness. I think Bayern Munich decision to sell Sadio Mane was quite hasty in this transfer window.

Mane did not perform well. Mane could not show the expected effect in a team like Bayern Munich that scored a lot of goals. Sometimes, no matter how good the team you transfer to, you may not be successful. There was a similar situation in Mane.

I would love to see Mane at Chelsea. Because Chelsea were not successful last season and are working to strengthen their squad next season. Chelsea can sign a player who knows the EPL. Mane is one of these players.

It is very difficult to find a player who can perform like Lewandowski did at Bayern Munich. Mane could not do what he wanted in the face of great expectation.

For sure that is a very nice and good loan for Leipzig , saddly there no buy option clause in that contract.
Even its only a year that Xavi Simons will be playing for Leipzig but it is a reinforcement for the team.

Sadio Mane quality is quite good and everyone recognizes it when he was still with Liverpool where he was one of the most impressive players at that time.

The problem about Mane was that he was so long injured i guess.
And he is not the youngest player now anymore.

Although Harry Kane doesn't want to go to PSG, I think Harry Kane is not perfect for PSC team. PSG needs to add a player like this who can play with Kylian Mbappe at forward pace. I think PSG need to revamp their squad with a gaming plan.

Harry Kane definitely has his own reasons why he doesn't want to go to PSG other than the team that currently houses him doesn't want to let him go for any team so he deliberately made the price a little more expensive. And I think it will also be very difficult for PSG to find players up front who can match Kylian Mbappe, because Kylian Mbappe is a player with a slightly different type from most other players. So things won't be so easy for PSG, except to only rely on the few players they have got this summer along with the old players who are still around.

Yes, that is a big consideration from Bayern Munich for the future of Sadio Mane. I think because of the injury factor that made him a consideration for Bayern Munich to release Sadio Mane in this transfer window. If you look at Sadio Mane age, of course he can still be relied on by Bayern Munich until the end of his contract, but that didn't come true after Tuchel gave a signal that Sadio Mane would be released in this transfer market.

Bayern Munich wants to improve its squad to be able to compete in the race for the UCL trophy, so a number of top stickers are often associated with Bayern Munich. For now bayern munich is relatively focused on completing Harry kane's transfer in order to be able to improve their weaknesses on the front lines.

I think Harry Kane is going to sign a new contract at Totthenham and won't go anywhere.What I see here is just a game plan by Kane to make the board sign more quality players that will make the team more stronger.They haven't won any trophy for a long time,and it's enough reason to frustrate any player putting in his effort to make that team move forward.Harry Kane has been very consistent in terms of goal scoring and I see him as the best striker in the premier league.If Kane were to be in a team like Mancity where they have all the best players,he will definitely score more goals than Haaland. Therefore,I don't think any move to either PSG or Bayern will materialise this season,and if a deal should happen,it depends on the kind of signings their new coach makes this season.

[Leviathan.007]

Lucas Hernandez left Bayern Munich for PSG and he was an effective player for Bayern Munich according to some news Bayern Munich was trying to hire another player to replace with Lucas Hernandez for their team, but now it seems Kim Min-Jae is going to play for Bayern Munich in the next season and he signed a contract with Bayern Munich until 2028.

No, Kane's transfer to Bayern Munich looks very serious and as far as I can see, Bayern Munich and Harry Kane himself are maximally disposed to make this transfer happen. As far as can be seen from the outside, Kane does not have such an intriguing character to play with the club in order for the club to strengthen its composition compared to competitors from top teams. Yes, in principle, it is not visible at the expense of what and what resources Tottenham owner Daniel Levy can do it. It's one thing to offer an even better contract to your leader, and quite another to find money for transfers and offer the same good money as Kane for potential equally strong newcomers.

Bayern Munich bought Kim Min-Jae and Manchester United will have to look for another central defender to replace Maguire who will be sold soon. Kim is not an alternative for Lucas Hernandez because he is not a wing back.

Moving to Bundesliga is a good choice because many Asian players from Japan and Korea succeeded in the league. Playing for Bayern Munich will help Kim to have good chance to win titles in another big league and he will be a first Asian player who can win domestic league titles from at least 2 biggest leagues in Europe. He will have more opportunities to play in Champions League with Bayern Munich as they appear in Champions League very regularly. If luckily enough, he can win Champions League with Bayern Munich as well.

Seems Bayern Munich loss faith with Sadio Mane after putting him in the list name for selling in this summer window transfer, last update Bayern have bid offer above 40 million euro due Saudi Arab Saudi teams Al Ahly and AN Nassr interested for signing Mane. Possibility with Sadio Mane will leave Bayern Munich because he hasn't not good relation between Thomas Tuchel after confirming his name in the list player for to sell.

Actually, Sadio Mane has quit well performance last season, but after arriving Thomas Tuchel he loss regular position and right now difficult to be main player in Bayern Munich under Thomas Tuchel era. Its not bad ideas for Mane leaves Bayern due less minutes playing but accepted Saudi Pro League offer is not good choose for his future.

Since Harry Kane is still under contract with Tottenham, Harry Kane will be obliged to obey Tottenham's instructions. At the moment, Harry can't change his club at will unless Tottenham gives him permission.  

From the beginning of the transfer market, there were rumors about why Harry would leave Tottenham, which led many to think that Harry might go to Real Madrid or Bayern Munich, but in the end, he may have to stay at Tottenham because of the club's unwillingness. Harry Kane's club does not want Hurricane to leave Tottenham because Tottenham management is well aware that if Harry Kane recovers from Tottenham, their team's situation will worsen. Thinking of their own team, they are negotiating a contract extension with Harry Kane again, not looking at money.  
This argument may go against his will if Harry Kane signs with Tottenham this season as he no longer wants to stay at Tottenham.

These Harry Kane issue is becoming irritating, because he's the one who knows what to do and I think he's just there to make the headline without making any reasonable decision. Everyone is waiting for him to decide weather he'd leave the Spurs team or not, like we all know nothing celebrating has come out of Tottenham only goals and individual awards no trophy to cheer about.
 
If you say Harry Kane is frustrated I'd say no to that, he's never frustrated at all, if he is then by now we'd be having a news that he's making a move to any interested club either PSG, Bayern Munich or even Manchester United. The man is comfortable with his situation, I'd tell you for free that is only someone who's frustrated that would make a move for a better change but not Kane and him delaying of making the board to bring in new players won't change anything at this point in time of his career unless he leaves the Spurs team.

It seems that Kane's problems do not end if the transfer season has not reached the end. LOL.
Maybe today there are still many people who do not know if Bayern Munich won 27-0 against FC Rottach-Egern. Tuchel still fielded his best squad even Sadio Mane was also played by Tuchel. He score one goal. In the first half, Bayern Munich Already won 18-0. After this Bayern will play against Man City on July 27.

as fans sometimes we can ambiguously view these rumors. even though we know that Harry Kane still has 1 year at Tottenham and it is not certain that Spurs will sell their best players to other teams but we always speculate without any basis of truth.
just imagine if these rumors are not real and will only make us disappointed when we expect Bayern Munich to sign this star player.

I know that maybe Munich and the fans really want this player to join Munich but unfortunately these are just untrue rumor and I think Spurs will still renew Harry Kane contract so Bayern Munich hopes will only be a vain wait.
