It'll soon be time for Bayern to decide on a new contract for arguably their greatest-ever signing and he is showing no signs of slowing down
Bayern Munich have taken a lot from Hoffenheim lately. Last summer they snatched – as they usually do – two of the best players from a domestic rival. Niklas Sule was a big-money arrival at centre-back and Sebastian Rudy was drafted in on a free for the midfield. In winter they went back again for Julian Nagelsmann’s expert goalscorer Sandro Wagner.
Bayern chip away at the armoury of their Bundesliga cohorts in the transfer market and it’s no wonder that result’s like Saturday’s 5-2 battering of Hoffenheim occur with such practices in place.
