His name: Erling Haaland (19). All over Europe chased the young star, BVB won the race and took him out of Salzburg with a cut price €20 million deal.
Under the heading "2020" Haaland wrote down his good BVB purpose for the new year. There are five points in total.
1. Learn German
2. Score more goals
3. Enjoy the yellow wall
4. Win the Derby
5. Ask for the black jersey
Dortmund will play at home for the first time in the new year against Köln. Means: The wonder striker sees the yellow wall and could also score his first goal. If he doesn't play in Augsburg a week earlier.
The derby against Schalke on March 14, also in Dortmund. Probably the most difficult item on the list: the black BVB jersey. The special edition for the club's 110th birthday - under the motto "Coal and steel - deeply rooted in our homeland for 110 years" - was coveted by the fans and quickly sold out.
