Knut Reinhardt celebrated great success with Borussia Dortmund. Finally, he had to deal with unsightly topics around his son.

On Tuesday, the “Bild” newspaper reported that the son of the former BVB star Knut Reinhardt was said to have been involved in a brutal crime on June 7, 2023. According to this, Nick Reinhardt, together with three accomplices, is said to have lured a 28-year-old into a trap. The man was beaten and robbed. The situation escalated and one of the four perpetrators is said to have hit the victim’s head several times (more about the case you read here).

On February 14, police officers Nick Reinhardt apparently arrested. In the meantime, the 19-year-old is supposed to wait for the process in freedom. His father now spoke to “Bild” about the case and explained: “We hit it hard. I was totally shocked and have to say: I still haven’t digested it. Then you build a wall around it first.”

Knut Reinhardt played as an active footballer for Bayer Leverkusen (1987 to 1991) and Borussia Dortmund (1991 to 1999). With BVB he won the Champions League in the 1996/97 season and also became German champion twice. He was also able to look forward to the Super Cup victory twice. Reinhardt may have passed the joy in the past few days.

As “BILD” continues, Nick Reinhardt is said to have grown up, according to a well -known. He even got a car from the father to the driver’s license. He had many opportunities – but apparently he increasingly oriented himself in another environment.

Knut Reinhardt is visibly hit and explained: “I don’t think I’m a bad father. And I don’t think that my son was missing anything. As a father, you just can’t do anything.”
