If only Bayern Munich had listened to Hermann Gerland...
Briefly

Hermann "Tiger" Gerland, former Bayern Munich assistant, recommended two talented players, Erling Haaland and Dayot Upamecano, for the club's consideration. He mentioned that Haaland, while at Molde, expressed a desire to earn €10-15k per month and would have cost €2.8 million. Upamecano was another talent he recommended, available for €2.2 million before moving to Salzburg. Gerland's insights reflect his strong talent identification skills, raising questions about Bayern Munich's recruitment decisions at that time.
I recommended Erling Haaland when he was still at Molde. He was in Munich for negotiations, he wanted to earn €10-15k a month, and would have cost €2.8m.
I also recommended Dayot Upamecano, who would have cost €2.2m before he went to Salzburg.
