Not only the young talents will have to deal with fresh competitors so will have established performers such as Marco Reus. The German international has to battle it out over the job in the front line with new arrival Brandt, who is part of the 130-million investment made by Borussia.

Dortmund claims to improve its team to gain further national and international success. But the bitter experience of having gambled away a seven-point lead last season in the national league has undoubtedly left its marks.

CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke, external advisor, and former German international Matthias Sammer and Zorc decided to skip the previous strategy to widely rely on highly gifted talents.

"We are aware we have invested a lot of money, but consider the fundamental changes on the international transfer market," Zorc emphasized not mentioning that his side was one of the profiteers of increasing transfer sums.

Now it is Dortmund following new pattern's as to buy established performers from other German clubs and not only rely on emerging talents from France like Ousmane Dembele (105 million to Barcelona) or Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (65 million to Arsenal).

Zorc justifies the new strategy when pointing out "that top class players normally fit together well" and adding "without a tight competition, you can hardly reach your goals." The former Dortmund midfielder is expecting a motivation boost for the entire team.
