Mario Götze, Robert Lewandowski and Mats Hummels all made the move from Dortmund to Bayern in the past, but the BVB are adamant to avoid that something similar will happen in the future as they want to keep competing with the Bavarians at the top of the Bundesliga.
Thus, when Dortmund recently granted Christian Pulisic permission to leave the club, it was under the condition that he wouldn't join Bayern. Instead, the winger completed a move to Chelsea and subsequently re-joined Dortmund on loan for the rest of the season.
After the 3-2 win over Bayern München in November, Borussia Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke already said that he is reluctant to let any players join the Bavarians.
"I can rule out that one of our boys will wear the jersey of Bayern München next year. We have made a little provision to avoid that. There are no exit clauses here," he told Sky.
