Erling Haaland has made league history in recent months with his outstanding performances at Bundesliga soccer club Borussia Dortmund. Never before had a teenager made such a strong debut as the 19-year-old, who has so far scored 13 goals in 14 championship games for BVB.
A balance sheet that leaves everyone involved, experts and observers amazed. “It came like a tsunami across the Bundesliga and immediately hit the mark,” said former Dortmund professional Michael Rummenigge in an interview with the “Sportbuzzer”.
The brother of Bayern Munich CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge was initially surprised that Haaland had chosen BVB: “In the winter he could have gone to any top European club. […] But Haaland knew: At BVB, young players get a chance and a lot of time. He also proved what he can do after the Corona break – even if he didn’t score in every game. […] With the will and the bite that he presents, he will be even more constant in his achievements in the future. “
Without any language or sporting start-up difficulties, Red Bull Salzburg’s new addition to the Black and Yellow team at the start of the second half of the season was fully hit. After just three appearances, Haaland had seven goals, which quickly became the new favorite of BVB fans. In the top scorer list in the second half of the season, the self-confident Norwegian ranks second behind Robert Lewandowski.
Rummenigge, who ran for Dortmund Borussia between 1988 and 1993, has a completely opposite opinion about left-back Nico Schulz. The million dollar transfer from last year is “nothing more than a backup”. Rummenigge believes that even reselling after just one season is possible. “However, the amount that the Dortmunders have transferred to TSG Hoffenheim for the transfer will hardly be possible if they are sold,” added the 56-year-old.
In the summer of 2019, BVB had cost the transfer of the international player a mere 25.5 million euros.
