Craig HillBayern Münich offer accepted for Tranmere (yes, TRANMERE ROVERS!) kid
July 4th 2011 11:24
In what will surely be the most unexpected of transfers should it be completed, Tranmere Rovers of the 3rd tier of English football, have accepted an offer from Bayern Munich, Germany's most successful (and arguably famous) side, for their young striker, Dale Jennings.
The 18-year-old only made his debut for Rovers at the start of last season, scoring 6 goals in an impressive 32 appearances.
Having given him permission to speak to the German giants, manager Les Parry said:
"Bayern have made us a very good offer for Dale and we don't want to stand in his way of making this incredible move. When a club with the size and history of Bayern come in for you it's the opportunity of a lifetime and I wish Dale all the best should the transfer happen. It also says a lot about the club's youth system that one of the giants of European football is interested in signing one of our players."
This, surely, is a 'Fairytale for Dale'.

It's Football, NOT Soccer!
I reckon he must be pretty talented- he won the 'League One Apprentice of the Year' award and Tranmere's own 'Young Player of the Year' award... but for THAT to attract interest from Bayern Münich is pretty surprising!
