In the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League, Bayern Munich were stopped in their tracks as Champions League Underdog Villarreal ousted them as the La Liga side found a winner in the closing moments of the second leg after Robert Lewandowski got Bayern Munich back into it. The last two seasons in Europe have been sequences of misfortune. In 2021 Robert Lewandowski got injured before the quarterfinals against PSG. Had they been at full strength in 2021, they would have won the Champions League back-to-back. This season had they been able to handle Villarreal, there’s a fair possibility that they could have won the Champions League this season. The lack of depth got in the way as they missed the opportunity to get their hands on the Champions League once again. Despite the shortcomings, it was a wildly successful season under Julian nagelsmann as he returned home, capturing the Bundesliga title again. Julian nagelsmann, one day soon, will be the best manager in the world; he is leading the Bavarians in the right direction. As we’ve already seen, Bayern Munich display smooth operation in the transfer market. As they are starting a Revolution as a new era of Bayern Munich approaches. Robert Lewandowski has made his intentions quite clear regarding his future at Bayern Munich. The Bavarians are building something different. Prior to this campaign, the early business they had done had been sensational. Still much to be done, but they are making All the Right Moves the best-run football club in the world and are prepared to handle the future as we will see the depth and extreme quality entering the fray. Bayern Munich has already captured three difference-makers that will answer many of the questions asked. Sadio Mane departing Liverpool alerted Bayern Munich even before it was made known that sadio Mane would be leaving Anfield. Bayern Munich was preparing a summer approach regardless of Mane’s announcement. Sadio Mane and Bayern Munich had been in contact for quite a while; it hardly took much time at all for them to agree on personal terms. Sadio Mane agreed on a three-year deal, but Bayern Munich still had to reach an agreement with Liverpool. Eventually, an agreement was reached has Bayern Munich to secure sadio Mane on a transfer of 33 million-plus bonuses rising to 42 million. A bargain for one of the best players in the world. Liverpool had already brought in Darwin Nunez, so they bought for 80 million-plus bonuses reaching 100 million. Liverpool was rather lenient in negotiating over the price as they probably could have got more than they agreed on, but sadio Mane expressed his desire to leave the club; the negotiations went quickly and were reached in a matter of weeks following the Champions League final. That’s a massive statement, especially with Robert Lewandowski likely departing and Serge gnabry rustling over contract negotiations. Bayern Munich didn’t stop there; they pulled off another bargain regarding one of the best young midfielders in World football and the engine of the Ajax team. Ryan Gravenberch saw his contract winding down with only one year left in his deal. Making him available for Less. Bayern and Ajax reached an agreement on a 20 deal has the Dutch Dynamic midfielder joins on a 5-year contract joining in Midfield that already features Joshua kimmich and Leon Goretzka, the youngster making the Bayern Munich midfielder even more of the formidable Force as well as offering the depth in that area that is much needed. Ajax continues to sell off its assets. As they’re going through a little bit of a Reload in Amsterdam, Sebastien Haller securing a move to Dortmund, Ryan gravenberch joining Bayern, and potentially Anthony heading to Man United. The Bavarian poached Ajax again, reaching terms with Noussair Mazraoui on a free transfer Alfred Schreuder has quite a job on his hands with Eric Ten Hag joining United. The Move gives Bayern flexibility; they have a quality right-back; now Bayern Munich looks to have extreme Talent on both sides with Noussair Mazraoui and Alphonso Davies. Bayern already with three huge deals to kick off the summer while doing so, securing the signatures of sadio Mane, Ryan Gravenberch, and Noussair Mazraoui on the cheap as they waited on all three Deals until they had minimal years left on the contract, so they could swoop in and upgrade their squad even further. Julian nagelsmann also eyes Konrad Laimer at RB Leipzig and Sasa Kalajdzic at Stuttgart and has the plans to get the ingredients necessary to win the Champions League again. The departure of Robert Lewandowski is something to look for in the coming weeks; even though Bayern Munich is resisting getting in a highly productive Striker to replace Robert Lewandowski or in a rare situation where he remains, Bayern filled almost everything they need, and the transfer season has only just begun proving that Bayern Munich are the smoothest operators in the business there’s certainly more to come but before all of that was going to take a look at the three new additions and what they can bring to a Bayern Munich that seems desperate to get their hands back on the Champions League trophy. Starting with the headliner Sadio Mane.
