With the engagement of Erling Haaland, Borussia Dortmund has achieved a real transfer coup. Sport director Michael Zorc now revealed details about the poker for the new BVB striker. Also to the future of Jadon Sancho and Achraf Hakimi Zorc expressed itself.
Zorc described the transfer from Haaland in an interview with “Sport Bild” as one of the most difficult of his sports director’s life. “We have reached into a rather high shelf at Erling, and it is no secret that other well-known clubs have made intensive efforts to get him,” said the 57-year-old.
Zorc also confirmed that BVB sent Haaland a video showing emotional images from the south stand: “We did indeed send him one of those, that’s right. He liked it quite a bit, I think.”
When BVB got Haaland’s approval, Zorc was “like a little boy”. The Norwegian is exactly the type of player “who was missing from our squad,” the former midfielder emphasised.
