Borussia Dortmund is currently planning for the future on several levels. On the one hand, the focus is naturally on the squad, which is still expected to change in several positions by the summer.
At the same time, work is also being done behind the scenes on several matters. Dortmund want to make some decisions regarding the club’s leadership, and they also want to extend Niko Kovac’s contract.
In addition, those in charge are looking for new sources of revenue. And the Black and Yellows have one specific idea in mind.
As Sport BILD reports, BVB have decided to apply to host the 2029 Champions League final. In terms of infrastructure, Signal Iduna Park certainly does not need to hide from other major arenas.
On top of that, the stadium already boasts an impressive South Stand and meets the highest standards when it comes to facilities. Hosting the final would bring several positive side effects: the local economy would benefit, and the club itself could also come away with a solid profit.
Of course, it is still too early to predict how good the chances are, as that also depends on the competition from other bidders. But BVB definitely have the project on their agenda. What is especially positive is that Dortmund would not need to invest much to host such a major event. The concept is already in place, and nothing needs to be changed.
Most recently, Germany hosted a final in Europe’s top competition in 2025, when it was played in Munich. In 2027, the match will be held at the Estadio Metropolitano in Madrid. UEFA will announce further venues in due course. In any case, it is a special honor for any city and any club to make their own stadium available for such an occasion.
