Borussia Dortmund will continue to have one of the most sought-after scouts on the continent. Michael Zorc, sports director and main responsible for transfers such as Erling Haaland, Jadon Sancho or Robert Lewandowski, has just renewed his contract with the Borusser team until 2022. His relationship with western Germany expired next summer, but the former striker of the black-yellow outfit did not hesitate to stamp his signature on a renewal until 2022.
“A few weeks ago I asked him to stay one more season. All BVB wants to express the illusion and gratitude that he feels knowing that Michael fulfilled our wish. Michael is a borusser from head to toe and is ready to lead the sporting direction in a difficult phase, in which all kinds of planning and developments are difficult to foresee, “explained Hans-Joachim Watzke, general manager of the club. Popio Zorc added: “We are facing a time full of challenges. It is understood by himself that he wants to continue on board this ship in the times we live in. “
Considered one of the architects of modern Borussia, Zorc, therefore, will continue to take the helm of a sports management that, with a considerably lower budget than they boast at the Allianz Arena, He managed to snatch the salad bowl from Bayern Munich in 2011 and 2012. The great challenge of the bee club is to re-form a group that is able to compete with the all-powerful Bavarian team until the end of the season and, in the best case scenario , touch silver again. Zorc's renewal is a first step toward that dream.
