BVB: Matthias Sammer expects Erling Haaland to stay

Matthias Sammer, who has been working as an external consultant for Borussia Dortmund since 2018, expects Erling Haaland to stay. The 21-year-old striker from Norway is courted across Europe.

“I’m neither Aki Watzke nor a patron. But I assume that he will stay. That’s how it is discussed. But if a madman comes and pays 200 million – how should I explain that to the shareholders?” Said Sammer at his Presentation as an expert on Amazon Prime Video. The platform will broadcast a top Champions League game on Tuesday from the beginning of the season.

The Norwegian Haaland is associated with some of the top European clubs. Chelsea, Manchester City, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus are potential buyers.

Meanwhile, Sammer is very critical of the flood of rejections in Stefan Kuntz’s Olympic selection. “That fits a bit into the current picture that the harmony in football is a bit disturbed. One or two more players would have been helpful,” said Sammer. There are only 18 players in the German squad.

This fact reminds Sammer of the German European Championship title in 1996, in which the team was also thinned out in the final against the Czech Republic: “We had three field players on the bench and Oliver Kahn got a field player jersey to be substituted on just in case In this respect: Everything is wasted and the proof that you can win something even with 16 players. “

The German Olympic selection succeeded after a 2-4 defeat at the beginning against Brazil a 3-2 victory against Saudi Arabia. In the last group game on Wednesday (10 a.m.), the Ivory Coast will be about to advance to the quarter-finals.
