Reus cost Dortmund 17.1 million nothings, and he was originally released from their youth system.
Their net spending is close to 0. They bought Reus because they planned to sell Kagawa in the summer, which they did for £17m.

They do spend money but only if they can manage to fund it with sales, which is a wise financial plan.

Sure, but they still had to spend €17m to get him.

A lot of teams have a similar model, Dortmund's advantage is their large fan base. Well, that's a German advantage as well.

Instead of making this thread about Cronios hate, lets take the thread back and keep it about our great man. Today should be the Marotta appreciation day. Let's all describe why you admire and him what makes Marotta the great man he really is. I'll start:

1. A man of his word. Says he will sign players on his own terms and never backs down.
