Heja BVB
Sorry to everyone looking for another article on how Nico Schlotterbeck MIGHT sign a new contract! We’re embracing the international window and taking a look at the teams who qualified for the 2026 World Cup yesterday. Paul Johnson gave everyone a preview in yesterday’s Daily Bee but here are is the final slate from yesterdays […]
We’re into the second week of the international break, and the UEFA World Cup qualification play-off finals are currently underway. At half-time, here’s how it stands: Italy are down to ten men, so maybe Bosnia & Herzegovina can pull the upset. I would also like to see Kosovo make it just for the novelty. Elsewhere, […]
Good morning, Fear the Wall. Wishing you a happy Monday as we wrap up the month of March. April showers on the horizon. As you can tell, there is just a plethora of news to share with you all about Borussia Dortmund during this international break. Dortmund knocked out their big news early in the […]
The international break kicks off this evening with the semi-final of the UEFA World Cup qualification play-offs taking place right now. Despite the terrible state of the world and the hosts of this summer’s World Cup doing their best to spoil everyone’s excitement, I’m still pretty pumped about the tournament (supporting one of the favorites […]
Happy Wednesday, everyone! Sorry for the late Daily Bee. I’m sure you were all on the edge of your seat waiting for your favorite article of the day. You know who else is a fan of the Daily Bee? Dortmund’s new Sporting Director, Nils-Ole Book (that’s probably not true). Book was officially unveiled in his […]
Usually it’s impossible to find any news worth covering in the Daily Bee during the international break, but not this week! I’d personally like to thank the Borussia Dortmund front office for making sure there’s plenty to talk about. They have been very busy, and it’s only Tuesday. Maybe they can also queue up some […]
Only a day after releasing Sporting Director Sebastian Kehl from his duties, Borussia Dortmund have found his replacement in Nils-Ole Book, who has earned his stripes as the Sporting Director of SV Elversberg since 2018. Book has a very strong record as Sporting Director at Elversberg, with the club rising all the way from the […]
Good morning, Fear the Wall. Well, we knew that Niklas Süle and Salih Özcan would be departing Borussia Dortmund, but someone has beaten them out the door. Dortmund’s sporting director, Sebastian Kehl, has left his post with immediate effect. Kehl’s departure ushers in a new era for BVB in the coming transfer window. Carsten Cramer […]
Borussia Dortmund and Sporting Director Sebastian Kehl have mutually agreed to part ways, according to an official club announcement earlier today. My sense is that the vast majority of BVB fans reacted to this news positively, and I tend to agree with them. Sebastian Kehl’s tenure as sporting director started out brightly, but the last […]
You get a penalty! You get a penalty! And YOU get a penalty! If I were a Hamburg fan, I would be absolutely livid with my team. They played very well in the first half and got a 2-0 lead to show for it. They then conceded a penalty, but were bailed out when Felix […]

Die Schwarzgelben will close out the month of March against Hamburg before dispersing into their national teams and putting the final touches on their individual World Cup preparations. After taking care of business against Augsburg last weekend, they face a similar midtable adversary in die Raute (Rhombus). Between the persistent Jadon Sancho tinnitus in everyone’s […]
It’s the final matchday before the March international break. Savor every last drop of Bundesliga football, because it won’t return for two weeks. There are some tasty matches to enjoy this weekend, perhaps most of all the Friday night game between RB Leipzig and Hoffenheim. The race for top four is really tight and with […]
Story time: I was supposed to be in Europe this week. My friend Josh and I had planned a football-themed trip wherein we would go to a Dortmund match (Augsburg), pick whatever Champions League games were available (we probably would have tried for Sporting and Barcelona) and then go to a Premier League match this […]
The Champions League Round of 16 concluded last night, with an average of almost six goals per game scored. Bayern Munich secured their place in the next round by hammering Atalanta 10-2 on aggregate. With Bayer Leverkusen beaten 2-0 by Arsenal on Tuesday (3-1 on aggregate), Bayern are the last German side in the competition. […]
The Borussia Dortmund Women’s Team has spent the last few years gradually rising through the ranks of German football, steamrolling through the lower divisions of Westphalia into the Regionalliga West. Now, they have bolstered their ranks with a bona fide legend: Alexandra Popp. The club announced the signing of the 34-year-old star, which will take […]
Good morning, Fear the Wall. It was a solid win for BVB against Augsburg this weekend. I caught some glimpses of the match, specifically a window between Adeyemi’s goal and the 4oth minute, where BVB probably should have scored about 5 goals. Maxi Beier went close on several occasions, as did Bellingham and I think […]

Serhou Guirassy is without a doubt one of the most talented attackers in European football at the moment. In his first season with Borussia Dortmund, Guirassy scored 21 goals in the Bundesliga and was joint top scorer in the Champions League, tied with Barcelona winger Raphinha on 13 goals. Despite BVB’s underperformance last season, the […]
A Return Back to The Yellow Wall Two weeks ago, when Dortmund last played in front of their home fans at the Westfalenstadion, they lost to their rivals, Bayern Munich. Now sitting 11 points behind the Bavarians, second place Dortmund look to fend off Hoffenheim, Stuttgart and Leipzig. who are all within a few games […]

His new contract increases his salary substantially, making him one of the highest paid players in Dortmund. This is a relatively short extension, and according to Bild, comes with two release clauses; one of […]
On a surprisingly warm evening at the Rhein-Energie-Stadion, Dortmund took on a free-falling Köln side that had won only once since the 25th of January. An exciting first ten minutes saw both sides nearly score, before Serhou Guirassy showed of some serious striker’s instinct to stay alive after a corner and poke home just after […]
Good morning, Fear the Wall. One of the more surprising pieces of new to come out of the Dortmund camp this weekend regarded the contract extension of Julian Brandt, or rather the non-extension, as we now know. Sean already reported on this news, but it seems that Brandt and BVB were not able to come […]
Julian Brandt is leaving Borussia Dortmund. According to Fabrizio Romano, the 29-year-old midfield maestro will be a free agent, after the player and club failed to come to an agreement during contract negotations. Brandt’s future in Dortmund has been up in the air for a while, and now his departure seems to be confirmed. This […]
