Bayern are sucking the blood out of every other club in Germany, in the process also preventing other CL clubs of getting additional talent.:lol:

When was the last time a La Liga or an EPL smaller team ship a player overseas when one of the bigger domestic league teams came knocking? Not practical.

They did it plenty of times and shipped players overseas.
And here is the catch, Barca,RM,Atletico very rarely to sell to each other, that isn't true with BVB,Schalke etc who tried to compete with Bayern.

When was the last time this happened? I mean, one of those clubs beside the top 3 shipping a player overseas because either us, Real Madrid or Atletico pursued a player of theirs?

The catch? Of course, I said it already, Spain has two or three whereas Germany only has one.

Not to us, no.
No problems selling players to the other "rival" though.

That's because of the local rivalry. The same with us and Espanyol, while you might see some cantera players from Espanyol joining us at a young age, you rarely see adult Espanyol players joining us and vice versa (the quality of Espanyol players might not be top notch but still they wouldn't sell them to us).

I don't think it's in any way related to "wanting to sell". Teams in Germany don't "want to sell" to Bayern, Bayern simply knows opportunistically when players contract run on 1 year down, or when they have a cheap release clause. If Barca had any plans to loot Espanyol over the next 10 years, they'd absolutely ruin them and theres little Espanyol could do.

If you look at any team or league, the chance that players stay there and sign long term contracts is proportional to the amount of money that team has at disposal.
So really there is only single factor we need to look at: How much budget do these teams have.

Here in Germany 1 team has a big budget. The others fall flat.

How on earth does the 2nd place team in Bundesliga just sell their best player to Bayern? smhhh.

Jokes on top of jokes.

This is like Bruno Fernandes or Salah being sold to City.

I've never understood why players in German who compete with bayern are so quick to join them.
