Borussia Dortmund

There is change afoot off the field too, as Marco Rose has been entrusted in the manager’s hot seat and there are sure to be tweaks to formations and playing personnel throughout the campaign.
Gregor Kobel looks set to start the season in between the sticks for Dortmund, with the young Swiss stopper having impressed throughout the pre-season.
Centre-back Manuel Akanji enjoyed a hugely impressive Euro 2020, and he will be the rock in the heart of the Dortmund defence this season.
Axel Witsel and Thomas Delaney will be charged with breaking up opposition attacks while Thorgan Hazard is a hugely creative threat from midfield.
Erling Haaland needs no introduction for Dortmund and if he stays at the club this year, his goals could prove vital throughout the campaign.
Eintracht Frankfurt
