Dortmund heads into Champions League final with an older, tougher team instead of young talents

Associated Press  

DORTMUND, Germany — Borussia Dortmund is world soccer’s finishing school no longer. We are a team that builds up to compete every year, but now we are there and we are facing teams that are built to win the Champions League.” And then there’s Jadon Sancho. The former England national team forward has revived his career since rejoining Dortmund on loan in January from Manchester United, where he hadn’t played since August amid a rift with manager Erik ten Hag. He will show the world that Jadon Sancho is really back.” Kehl said Dortmund plans “discussions” about the 24-year-old Sancho’s future, but only after Saturday’s game. That’s what we will try on Saturday.” Only two Dortmund players made the Germany squad for Euro 2024, including striker Niclas Füllkrug, who spent much of his career in the second division before finally breaking through at 29 with Werder Bremen and making his national team debut in 2022.
