Former Bayern and Germany international Dietmar Hamann has come out to say that the club shouldn’t spend big on Luis Diaz this summer. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, paying 70 or 80 million for a Diaz that will have no resale value in the next couple of years will be a bad move for the German club.
He added that Bayern Munich should focus on its tested and trusted developmental philosophy that relied on its academy talents.
His words, “To now bring in Luis Diaz, a 28-year-old South American who played 50 games per season for four or five years and has those long flights home, which are also a problem. To pay 70 or 80 million for that, while the sale value is zero because he would be 32 at the end of his contract. I wonder what they even have the campus for?
One could have come up with the idea of approaching the player and the club before the European Championship, then he might have cost less. This is a player for whom, with a lot of imagination, one could pay 40 million.
But Bayern are in a situation where they will have to at some point, and I don’t think it’s out of the question that they might pay 70 million. I think it’s absurd to pay €70 million for a player who was free two years ago. And they shouldn’t go along with that. I’ll let Wisdom Mike or Lennart Karl play instead. That’s why I feel Woltemade isn’t coming to Munich.”
WOW.
