Hans-Joachim Watzke, CEO of the Borussia Dortmund, in an interview with the newspaper 'ACE', confessed that the sale of Jude Bellingham to the Real Madrid was by a greater figure to the 103 million euros
In the anteroom of the final of the UEFA Champions League between the Real Madrid and the Borussia Dortmund that will contest in Wembley next Saturday, Hans-Joachim Watzke, CEO of the German team, conceded an interview to the 'daily ACE' where argued the present of the yellow group, that looks for his second Orejona. To his time, advanced that the figures by the signing of Bellingham by the white group, are not those that say to be.
Watzke Recognised the importance of the club to the hour to sell footballers, mentioning the last operations that have benefited them and consolidated in Europe like one of the vitrinas of big stars. Players like Lewandowski, Gündogan, Dembélé and, the most recent, Erling Haaland and Jude Bellingham, have gone through his rows, what full of pride to the German club.
Likewise, reflexionó on the strategy of transfers of the club. "Buy cheap was the only that could do at the beginning. Afterwards we begin to sell well little by little, but neither arrive and urge to the clubs to offer by our footballers. What occurred is that they came and carried them to him without that we could do at all", commented Watzke. "No queriamos give us off of Lewandowski, Haaland or Bellinhgam, but all these exits are the proof of the big work that have done in the sportive all these years", added.
Curiously, it went one of the promoters so that Bellingham left to the Madrid. "It was not a hard negotiation. For nothing. Always I advised him to Jude that, to be convinced to want to to leave to another club, considered to leave to the Real Madrid. And it did me case. At the end it is the biggest club of the world. They are a lot of years and know them to all. Florentino is the jefazo, but also is José Ángel Sánchez, with which joins me a friendship. Only for appointing an example", aimed.
The sale exceeded the 103 million euros
"To having been only 103 millions had negotiated badly. But no, it does not serve of consolation the quantity paid by his signing because players like Jude or Erling no only left a footprint futbolística in Dortmund. They are two youngsters that appreciate a lot here. There is not money that compensate it. This yes, since you have to leave them leave, as that it was by the greater possible quantity but went by enough more than 103 millions", concluded.
