Coach Julian Nagelsmann from FC Bayern is surprised at the number of arrivals from FC Barcelona, ​​who signed world footballer Robert Lewandowski from Munich as the king's transfer.

"It's not just Lewy, they're buying a lot of players - I don't know how.

It's the only club in the world that has no money but buys any player they want.

It's kind of weird, kind of crazy," Nagelsmann said on Tuesday (local time) in Washington.

You would find solutions.

How, he doesn't know, said the 34-year-old.

The heavily indebted Catalans have so far spent more than €100m on Brazilian Raphina (Leeds United) and Lewandowski.

Franck Kessié (AC Milan) and Andreas Christensen (Chelsea) came on free transfers.

Matthijs de Ligt arrived at FC Bayern

Even without new signing Lewandowski, FC Barcelona clearly won the first game of their North American trip.

The Spanish football club won 6-0 (3-0) against Inter Miami on Tuesday (local time).

The goalscorers included former Dortmund players Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (20th minute) and Ousmane Dembélé (70th).

The other goals were scored by newcomer Raphinha (25'), Ansu Fati (41'), Gavi (55') and Memphis Depay (69') in front of 18,000 spectators.

The German national goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen was between the posts in the first half.

The 33-year-old Lewandowski traveled to his new team from Munich via Mallorca at the weekend after the Pole's move from FC Bayern to Barcelona had been confirmed.

The transfer was finalized on Tuesday evening (CEST).

Lewandowski will sign a four-year deal that includes a €500m release clause, according to the Catalans.

The announcement also said that the transfer fee was 45 million euros and could increase to 50 million euros through bonus payments.

In Washington, Bayern coach Nagelsmann also commented on the commitment of Dutch international Matthijs de Ligt, which he sees as a "good sign" for Bayern and "the entire Bundesliga".

The 22-year-old is "still very young and still had a great career," said Nagelsmann.

“He is a leader and can guide other players.

I hope that he will soon be able to meet his team-mates."

Bayern had previously announced De Ligt's commitment on Tuesday, with the Juventus defender costing 67 million euros.

However, Nagelsmann is not only hoping for defensive stability.

"Of course we don't have Lewandowski anymore, so it's important that he also brings in his strengths up front," said the coach.

"I'm hoping for seven to eight goals." De Ligt scored eight goals in 117 competitive games for Turin and two goals in 38 appearances for the national team.

When asked about possible further transfers, Nagelsmann answered meaningfully: "The market is still open for a while and we'll see what happens.

We'll definitely do a good job right to the end.” Konrad Laimer from Nagelsmann's former club RB Leipzig and Mathys Tel from Stade Rennes are considered candidates.

Former Ajax-Amsterdam professional Ryan Gravenberch is already with Bayern, where he is now supposed to compensate for national player Leon Goretzka's absence for weeks.

“He now has an earlier chance to make his mark on our game.

If he plays the way he trains, I think we'll have a lot of fun with him," said Nagelsmann before the friendly against DC United this Wednesday (local time).

Gravenberch, who came from Ajax for a fee of 18.5 million euros, has "made an excellent impression in training" so far, Nagelsmann said.

“He is a very fine footballer and always has good ideas.

He has incredible coordination, getting his bones and the ball under control.” Gravenberch (20) is a “link player between defense and offense”, but still has “potential when it comes to defense”.

Goretzka had an operation on his left knee at the beginning of the week to get his ongoing problems there under control.

He is expected to be absent for several weeks.
