  "account": "As the 2026/2027 Bundesliga season approaches, Bayern Munich remained frugal in their summer transfer activities, only bringing in four new players. These signings included Ismael Saibari, Nathaniel Brown, Bara Sapoko Ndiaye, and Noel Aseko. Conversely, the club let go of several key players, such as Joao Palhinha, Daniel Peretz, Alexander Nubel, and many others.\n\nMeanwhile, rivals Borussia Dortmund made significant investments to strengthen their squad. Notably, they signed Konstantinos Karetsas from KRC Genk for a record-breaking fee of Rp521 billion. Additionally, Greek midfielder Giannis Konstantelias joined from PAOK Salonika to bolster the team's attacking options. RB Leipzig also made a noteworthy move by signing Chelsea striker Marc Guiu on a permanent basis.",
