Despite BVB’s spectacular victory against Eintracht Frankfurt (3-2) this Friday, club news was largely dominated by Niklas Süle’s announcement. The German defender confirmed that he would end his career at the end of the season, a decision that had already been considered for several months, but made even more concrete after his recent knee injury. In a necessarily special context, the 30-year-old player insisted on participating in this last meeting at Signal Iduna Park, surrounded by a very emotional audience.

At the final whistle, the German international let his emotion burst, saluting the yellow wall one last time after this success. “I am really very happy”he simply confided after the meeting, still marked by this evening full of emotions. A symbolic exit for a player who arrived in 2022 from Bayern Munich, who will have played more than a hundred matches in the colors of Dortmund. A page turns.
