So we all saw Thomas’ post. He’s so amazing for posting this for Marco. Always knew he was a top guy.
BUT ALSO. They were just teammates on the national team, they may actually be friends, but nowhere near as close at he and Mats. Imagine what he posts when Mats retires, I don’t think my heart will be able to take it 🥹
normal reaction when you choose the wrong team at Padel 👀 @mariuswolf27
Who was going to tell me Mats and Marius Wolf, of all people, are padel buddies? What other secret Dortmund bromances are there that we aren’t aware of? 👀
This is not okay. In what world is it okay to have a weapons company be a sponsor? Not only that, the company in questions has sent tens of thousands of weapons to Israel.
Regardless of political opinions, people are being hurt by weapons ever day in Palestine and Israel, and it’s not right for a football club to endorse this type of violence.
It doesn’t matter the amount of money we are getting from this, the sponsorship should not have been considered at all. This is not my club. This is not right. It is disgusting behavior from the higher ups, and shows that all we care about now is money. Absolutely disgusting behavior.
Borussia Dortmund is betraying their fan base by throwing away their morals in favor of 20 million dollars and a small graphic on the sleeve of the shirt.
Leaking the departure of one of your biggest legends is absolutely embarrassing and pathetic after all he had done for us. Having the interview be RIGHT before the UCL final was honestly embarrassing and a very bad look for the club even if it was accurate in showing our current situation. Still think he had a right to know before us though. Lowkey think it was Terzic who leaked but that’s just a theory
Dear BVB,
Dear BVB fans,
Now the time has come.
Over 13 years of black and yellow are coming to an end for me.
Dortmund was my home for 13 years.
It is Thursday, June 13th, and I am sitting on the couch in the evening as I try to write these lines.

It is really hard for me.
The way it was said makes me very sad, because this impersonal farewell does not do justice to the time we spent together.
But that is unfortunately how it is sometimes in this business, and the day will come when we can make up for it together in front of the yellow wall. I chose this farewell to some extent myself, because I deliberately did not want to make an early decision about my future.
That is why the last few months have been emotionally challenging for me, because it was always clear that they could be my last in black and yellow.
Many of you have probably noticed how much I enjoyed everything about the last home games and the Champions League final. After the game, sitting alone at the post in the most beautiful temple in the world, soaking up the atmosphere, and standing in front of the South when everyone was singing my name.
Pure goosebumps, even if I think about it again. It was and is a great honor and I will never forget it. Please do me a favor and don't believe everything I've read over the last few days. There were a lot of untruths and half-truths.
Just this much: in all these years.
BVB has always been above all else for me, and I always wanted the best for the club on and off the pitch
The influence of a 35-year-old player who doesn't know how his career will continue from the summer onwards has certainly not been as great in the last few months as the media sometimes makes it out to be. What have we experienced together in these years, with the gray league times at the beginning, with the first personal DFB Cup final in 2008.
About the upswing under Jürgen Klopp and the years that were almost like a rush. With so many highlights that I can't even list them. The finals won and lost. The last place at the beginning of 2015, which actually couldn't have happened, and the run back to 7th place at the end of the season.
Two Champions League finals and, most recently, two big missed title dreams.
But I was particularly pleased when I was accepted back to
BVB in 2019 after my transfer, and I hope you noticed: I tried everything and tore myself apart for the black and yellow jersey and success. There is no other place like the south stand.
I was called the "bricklayer of the yellow wall" a few weeks ago.
I'm going to hang that above my BVB trophy cabinet!
I'm incredibly proud of it.
I'll miss everything about this awesome club.
See you.
HEJA BVB!
BVB
Your Mats
If Mats Hummels hadn’t been unnecessarily dropped for 4(?)ish years from the national team, I think they would have continued to dominate
I think my profile made this a reality, no complaints there 😅
He deserves this so much after the league and UCL performances, I can not even begin
