The sad thing is, last season there was talk how Goretzka will go to Bayern for free, and Schalke did nothing about that. The rules say that you can not talk with a player until he has 6 months left on his contract, why not sue Bayern for that, and get them transfer banned. All Bundesliga teams are Bayerns bitches, they give them their best players for free and for super cheap prices. Bayern is the only club in the world that has no domestic rivalry.
The problem is it is hard to prove that Bayern talked to him before he had 6 months left on the contract. Both would deny it.
What Schalke should have done was to sell him last summer knowing that he didn't want to extend his contract. Unless of course if he refused to go to any other team except Bayern like Lewandowski did.
Again it goes to show the monopoly Bayern enjoys over buli players and German talent. They won't face any serious challenge any time soon.
