Kehl on Jürgen Klopp's return last week: "That was the old Klopp. He just brought joy and was happy to see his boys. He lit up the locker room and later the celebration. Jürgen hasn’t forgotten this club. It’s a wonderful connection. I think he’ll pop up again someday and stay

Kehl on Sebastien Haller: "The situation was very emotional for me. Stories like this don’t happen often. He’s a great personality. It wasn’t easy to let him go. But we found a good solution in the interest of everyone involved."

Kehl on Niclas Füllkrug's departure: "In the end, it was a win-win situation. I talked to him about the Guirassy transfer, and he started thinking. He would’ve faced more competition. Then a better opportunity came up in England. In the end, there's no hard feelings."

Kehl on the transfer window: "We analyzed the situation well and acted accordingly. Sometimes you have to seize the moment. We reduced the squad size to give young players more space. But I’m not naïve, we’ll be judged by results."

Kehl on the Guirassy transfer and the new striker setup: "Of course, we discussed this internally. Serhou is our clear number one up front. For Youssouf Moukoko, this is a good new step. It would have been difficult for him here, as it would have been for Haller. We swapped

Kehl on his personal future: "I really enjoy working with Nuri Sahin. He’s a very competent coach and a great personality. We’ve built something here together. Continuing that would be a lot of fun. If the club approaches me and still values me, we’ll sit down. My love for this

Kehl on Niklas Süle: "This has been a process since last season. We had some very clear conversations and set expectations. He understood that, and his reaction was great. He’s fighting for his spot. I’m really happy we have this depth. I’m sure he’ll make the most of his

Kehl on Felix Nmecha and the midfield situation: "I’m completely convinced by this player. He has incredible abilities. I’m really happy we have this midfield. We put it together very deliberately."

Kehl on BVB's season goals: "We want to play a really strong role. It would be nice to bring another title back to Dortmund."

BVB is heavily featured.

Stefan Effenberg via his column: "What stands out to me about Borussia Dortmund and new coach Nuri Sahin is that he makes tactical decisions, including taking the captain out of the lineup at times – it shows that he has the courage to do so. BVB only won against Heidenheim

Emre Can is in the autumn of his career. He’s viewed critically within the club. When Can is not on the pitch, Marcel Sabitzer can return to the center. Recently, Sabitzer had to move to the right wing, where he had little impact on the game. As a result, he appeared very

What a time to be alive.

Lothar Matthäus via his column: "Despite the departures of key players like Marco Reus, Mats Hummels, and Niclas Füllkrug, Borussia Dortmund is seen as stronger than in previous years. The changes, including new players and coach Nuri Sahin, have brought positive momentum.
