"We hope even more talents will come through because we're putting in huge efforts on the campus. To some extent, that's our answer to the madness going on in other European leagues. We can only compete with them if we have good youth work, manage our financial resources wisely and develop new sources of revenue. At the same time, it's a huge joy. It's a continuation of (Bastian) Schweinsteiger, (Philipp) Lahm, (David) Alaba, (Holger) Badstuber, and however many I've forgotten."
"Now we're talking about (Josip) Stanišic, (Aleksandar) Pavlović, Lennart Karl. They can only get playing time either if the squad is not too big or sometimes due to injuries to the players ahead of them. If they perform, then they will prevail," Dreesen said during an appearance on BR24Sport (as captured by @iMiaSanMia). Those words underline the growing importance of the Bayern Munich campus as both a competitive strategy and a cultural anchor."
Bayern is investing heavily in its campus to produce more elite talent as a strategic response to escalating transfer fees and wages across Europe. The club plans to compete by strengthening youth development, managing financial resources prudently, and developing new revenue streams while preserving long-term stability. Past homegrown leaders exemplify the model's success, and current prospects must earn playing time through performance, limited squad size, or circumstantial opportunities. The approach balances competitive ambition with sustainability and seeks to maintain club identity rather than engage in costly bidding wars for established stars.
