Does Mats Hummels comeback for Borussia Dortmund at the club World Cup including the end of the career? According to the “Sport Bild”, this is currently rather unlikely. Nevertheless, the 36-year-old is open the doors for his time after the active career. According to the magazine, he can choose his job at BVB himself.
Therefore, in the past week, a conversation with Hummels had already given the leadership of the black and yellow. In it, the central defender made it clear that after his career end he wanted to take a longer break of at least one year before he could return to football business in a new function.
For BVB, which promised that one was immediately ready to talk as soon as Hummel’s interest in returning, apparently no problem. It is said that Hummels plays with the idea of taking a coaching career. But other functions are also conceivable, such as that of the licensed player who recently had Sebastian Kehl before he climbed to the sports director. This position has been vacant since then.
What and against a club World Com comeback from Hummels speaks
In contrast, the decision-making power of the club World Cup has in particular BVB. There will be discussion at the management level in the next few weeks whether a mini contract would make sense for Hummel’s sense and under what conditions this would be conceivable. For this, speak that Hummels would give the squad more width, especially after the violation of Nico Schlotterbeck. In addition, as a draft horse, he could significantly help Dortmund’s marketing marketing in the United States. On the other hand, it speaks whether Hummels, as a central defender number four, would be on the bench without complaining. In addition, coach Niko Kovac is currently not the big Hummels advocate.
For BVB, Hummels stood 508 times on the pitch from 2008 to 2016 and from 2019 to 2024. In the record player ranking, he takes second place.
