  • Imma just throw in the lesser known Michael Zorc out here.

    Born in Dortmund the man played for Borussia Dortmund since 1978 when he joined with 16 years of age. Ended up playing his whole career here and then continues to work as director of sports for the club. He retired from that in 2022 but that’s an overall of 44 years of service. I think he won 2 championships in the 90s as well as the Champions League in 1997 as a player then as director he won another 3 Championships with us. But mostly I commend him for playing a vital part in saving us from sinking into irrelevance after we were in dire straits around 2005. some fucking pieces of magic he performed here. buying Shinji Kagawa for 350k for example I’ll never get over how big of a transfer that was. At that point we weren’t able to do big transfers but we got somewhat creative and won a sensational title. … yeah. The club can’t be thankful enough for him.
