As a TV expert, Dortmund’s consultant Matthias Sammer went hard with the BVB team last year. This will no longer happen in the future.

BVB consultant Matthias Sammer will in future no games from Borussia Dortmund will accompany more than TV expert. This was confirmed by BVB Managing Director Hans-Joachim Watzke on Saturday evening in the “Current Sports Studio” of the ZDF.

Watzke reported that there were discussions and that corresponding consequences were drawn. “Matthias will no longer comment on games where BVB is on the pitch,” said the 65-year-old. Sammer had “talked too much in rage” during his TV appearances. However, this was processed together, emphasized Watzke.

The trigger was a clear criticism of the Dortmund team during the Champions League group phase. At that time, Nuri Şahin was still on the sidelines for the “black and yellow”. After the 1-2 defeat at FC Bologna, Sammer was keen on the team at Prime Video, emphasized that she was “physically and mentally in a non-constitution”.

Even afterwards, the former BVB professional had no longer analyzed games from the previous year’s finalists on television.
