Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl extends contract until 2027
Borussia Dortmund have extended sporting director Sebastian Kehl’s (44) contract until 2027, the German Bundesliga club announced on Thursday.
Kehl played for Dortmund between 2002-2015, winning three league titles while also captaining the side.
“I am delighted to be able to continue working for this great club,” Kehl said in a statement.
“We have great ambitions,” he added.
The extension continues Dortmund’s strategy of hiring former players in leadership roles.
Kehl works alongside Dortmund-born managing director Lars Ricken, who scored the match-winning goal in the 1997 Champions League final.
