Haven't been following European soccer very long at all, but with Champions League and transfers, I'm trying to get up to speed. So, with that being said . . .
Dortmund seems to be in negotiations with Man United on a transfer for Jadon Sancho for around 90M euros. Man City look to be submitting a bid for Erling Haaland for around 110M euros. The hold up, or at least a big part of the hold up from what I've read is that Dortmund don't want to lose both during this transfer window because they don't want to miss out on making the Champions League next year.
I understand that concern, BUT with 200M euros in their pockets shouldn't they be able to bring in a couple of established players AND buy some young talent to set them up for next year and years to come?
OR
Would the 200M euros offset any losses from not making Champions League next year?
OR . . .
I guess what I'm wondering is are they good enough to qualify next year without Sancho and Haaland? Big ask, I know, but I don't know how strong their competition is in the Bundesliga.
