For many Bayern fans, the most important transfer window has been running for a long time – and Hasan Salihamidzic has been heavily criticized so far. But now the tide could turn for the sports director for the better.
Fans dissatisfied: For many months Hasan Salihamidzic was in the crossfire of criticism because of his hesitant transfer policy. Fans and experts kept counting on his lousy purchase balance, and he wasn’t controversial at the club either. But the transfer coup with Sadio Mané, who is moving from Liverpool to Bayern Munich, could now give him a contract extension.
Short, compact, clear
Successful transfers: With the signings of Noussair Mazroui, Ryan Gravenberch and Sadio Mané, the Bosnian has now been able to free himself from this unfortunate image trap, according to a report by “Kicker”. Above all, the purchase of Mané, who was also heavily courted by Paris Saint-Germain, has been able to stabilize his reputation among supporters and those in charge of the club.
Hasan delivered: According to “Kicker”, signing the Senegalese was mainly the work of Salihamidzic. He suspected early on that the star from Liverpool was available and took care of it in good time. The sports director’s contract expires next summer. Should the signings take off, he would be in a very good negotiating position for an extension.
