How Dortmund Sign World’s Best Teens!
Posted: 14 July 2020

German giants Borussia Dortmund are expected to beat Manchester United to the signing of exciting teenager Jude Bellingham this summer, but it begs a question; how does Dortmund win the battle to sign Europe’s best young talents?

The Yellow Submarine have long had a history of beating the likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid, Juventus, Manchester City and the likes to young talents, and it has been proven time and time again of their ability to win their signatures.

Dortmund have signed the likes of Christian Pulisic, Ousmane Dembele, Nuri Sahin, and now recently Jadon Sancho, Eerland Herling, Gio Reyna, and possibly the latest addition could be 16-year-old Jude Bellingham. So, how do Dortmund do this? The club promises young players the following;

  • The experience of playing in front of the “Yellow Wall” in the mad-city of Dortmund
  • They offer competitive wages
  • They offer young players 40 plus games per season in the Bundesliga
    They offer precocious talents a shirt in Europe (playing in the Champions League)
  • 16-year-olds are recruited as first-team players, not reserve team arrivals

The hierarchy at the club also use the symbol – If They’re Good Enough, Their Old Enough!

The German side remain one of the best attractions for young footballers in world football, and that explains it!
