Big fan of Xabi Alonso and what he is doing with Leverkusen. His stamp on the game is so evident. What do you people think?

      23/24: 80 Mill in / 70 out. High loan players brought in, too. 22/23: 15 Mill in / 10 out. 21/22: 55 Mill in / 43 out 20/21: 46 in / 91 out 19/20: 100 in / 33 out

      Sum: ~ 300 Million in / 240 out over the last few seasons. That’s a transfer gap of 60 Million by a club that has an average viewer count of 28k (as much as Karlsruhe SC has in 2. Bundesliga; half as much as Hamburger SV) and 30k members compared (half as much as Freiburg and a fourth of Frankfurt or Cologne).

      I am 100% willing to give you another 50 mill on top for CL-Money and everything, but dont tell me thats Diaby money. 25 Million each season by Bayer - that’s what pays competitive wages and works as the main security.
