🧵 Thread | How Borussia Dortmund beat bankruptcy twice in 20 years and became one of the biggest clubs in Europe.

✍️ @jackmeenan15 Today, BVB play in their third ever #UCLfinal & have the opportunity to win the title for the second time in their club's history, but unlike their opponent, Dortmund have not had it easy as they've had to beat bankruptcy twice in their history to get to this point.

Bayern Munich CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge on media targeting their players: "We got together on Monday after the Netherlands game. What we read in the press was an account with individual players, especially Bayern players. Human dignity is inviolable. We will not accept that." Rummenigge cont.. "I can't even start with what I've read about Neuer. He is a 4 time world goalkeeper of the year. Without exaggeration, he created his own game. What I also read about Boateng and Hummels, it seems these experts are no longer aware of dignity and decency."
