yes thats true, I think its a good move by dortmund, because they wont find a similar striker this summer, and they have already about +100 Mio. in their pockets, so they dont need to sell.
it doesn't matter they have bidded his release clause earlier or not, bayern did this in 2012 aswell, but götze refused in that time. In 2012 nobody knew that Guardiola will be the new coach of bayern, then in January 2013 bayern proclaimed that guardiola will be the new coach, after this bayern bidded again and finally götze accepted, then bayern could trigger his clause... its not about how much or how early you bid, its about the player to accept any offer.
Arsenal fans at work think they are signing dortmunds Gundogan 
and they would have signed gotze had they have bidded his release clause earlier

He has achieved quite a lot, albeit at a smaller stage (Ligue). But he managed to create a consistent, attack minded team that did quite well in the Ligue. This season is actually the first time Lille do not qualify for a European competition. Bear in mind that Lille are forced to sell their best players almost every season. They were competitive despite selling the likes of Bodmer, Kader Keita and Makoun earlier, then the sale of Gervinho, Cabaye and Moussa Sow(the goalscorer of the Ligue when they won the double), but losing Hazard was the last nail in the coffin, and understandably they did not do that well this season. Lille want to keep him, but the management has already informed him that they need to sell a few of the high earners, which is probably the reason he's decided to leave.
