Borussia Dortmund has officially reached an agreement with David Blacha whose contract will start on 1 July, 2026.
The 35-year-old joins the eight-time German champions from SV Elversberg and will work at BVB as advisor to sporting director Ole Book.
Former professional Blacha, who ended his playing career in 2023, progressed through all of BVB's youth teams between 2000 and 2009.
“We are delighted to have secured David for Borussia Dortmund and are convinced that his abilities will help us progress.
