BVB focus on detail: new chief analyst on the way | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund has set itself the goal of improving in almost all relevant areas in the new season. That includes not only the squad, but also all the factors around it.

So it comes as no surprise that the Black and Yellows are also pushing for changes and improvements in other areas. One example is the new groundskeeper, who is considered an absolute expert in his field and is joining the Black and Yellows from England.

He is expected to improve the pitch at Signal Iduna Park as well as the training grounds. All departments at BVB would benefit from that. But the pursuit of maximum success does not end there.

Dortmund is also revolutionizing the analytics department

Given that BVB’s financial resources are not unlimited, the changes in the squad must go hand in hand with those outside of it. That is why Dortmund also has clear ideas. And a clear plan.

According to a report by Sport BILD, a new head analyst is now on the way. His name is Roderick van der Ham (35), and his arrival is expected very soon. He most recently worked for Liverpool FC for two years as a video analyst. His task is clear: he is to modernize match analysis and match preparation and take them to a new level.

This, in turn, provides more support for Niko Kovac. The deal has not yet been officially confirmed, but everything points to it being finalized soon. The team behind the team is therefore set to be more clearly structured and bring in more expertise. That, in turn, should also help the departments work together more effectively.

Dortmund’s goal is to truly leave nothing to chance anymore. If that succeeds, then the Black and Yellows will have the ideal conditions to get another one, two, or three percent more out of themselves.
