Bayern Munich has a long standing history of having a good eye for skilled ballers, both domestically and abroad. The scouting team at any club is probably one of the most valuable department, and it is no different for Bayern.
According to a report captured by @iMiaSanMia, Bayern Munich’s head of scouting, Nils Schmadtke, has become Dynamo Dresden’s preferred candidate to fill their vacant sporting director position.
It’s a move that, on paper, makes perfect sense, but in practice may prove difficult to pull off. Schmadtke, although employed only for a year, has been instrumental in Bayern’s current scouting network, overseeing the identification and development of talent across both domestic and international levels. The challenge, however, lies in convincing Schmadtke to leave Bayern. Transitioning from one of Europe’s elite organizations to a club working its way back up the German football ladder would represent a bold personal shift, even if the opportunity to shape a project from the ground up is enticing.
For Dynamo Dresden, the timeline is clear and pressing: a new sporting director must be in place by early December to plan for the crucial winter transfer window. Whether Schmadtke sees this as the right moment to take that leap remains uncertain. But the fact that Dresden are aiming this high speaks volumes about their intent, and about how Bayern’s internal expertise continues to draw attention from elsewhere in German football.
