Bayern has read this all wrong.

They’ve known forever they needed to replace Robben and Ribery

Moreover, everyone else knows it.

Bayern also waited way too long to address the situation, and when they had that oh shit moment, they went out of character and began tapping up players, and doing some unseemly things in public.

Again, because they are desperate and everyone knows it.

The problem is, they went after Chelsea and City players tapping them up.

Chelsea and especially City don’t need the money. Moreover, they are not desperate.

See the Hazard to Real situation. Chelsea was always going to sell Hazard, but it was going to be on their terms. Eventually Real paid up and it got done.

Sane to Bayern will most likely happen by Thursday. But only when the club that is desperate, meets the price/valuation of the non desperate club.

Bayern is desperate here, everyone knows it. They will have to pay a premium to get Sane. Not because City needs the money, but because that’s their valuation of the player. Instead of tapping up and leaking done deals at 90M. The desperate club should pay up and get it over the line. Publicly tapping Sane up isn’t going to reduce the price at this point. It doesn’t matter how many Bild hot takes are printed. Everyone knows Bayern is desperate. They are going to have to pay a big premium to City at this point.

Balls in Bayern’s court. They nozzed it up waiting so long. Now they will have to pay for their mistakes. And all the tapping up in the world won’t change the price. Bayern isn’t going to get Sane cheap, because City isn’t desperate, Bayern is.
