Who is Dortmund's New Sporting Director? Gnabry's Resurgence & Kwasniok Sacking

Dortmund have made a decisive structural change, ending their relationship with Sebastian Kehl by "mutual agreement" and bringing in Ole Book from Elversberg. This was not driven by results but by internal leadership tensions, particularly with Lars Ricken, and reflects a broader reset in how the club approaches recruitment and decision-making.At Köln, the dismissal of Lukas Kwasniok highlights a different issue. The decision had effectively already been made before the 3–3 derby against Borussia Mönchengladbach, with the result acting only as a trigger. It raises ongoing questions about instability and long-term planning at the club.On the pitch, Bayern continue their dominant run with a 4–0 win over Union Berlin, moving closer to the Bundesliga goals record. Serge Gnabry’s resurgence under Vincent Kompany is a key theme.Elsewhere, Stuttgart strengthen their Champions League push with a certain Deniz Undav scoring in his sixth consecutive game, Dortmund stage a comeback against Hamburg , and Leverkusen once again fail to hold control despite strong phases. Frankfurt’s decision to leave Mario Götze out of the squad adds another layer of intrigue.Timestamps:0:00 Intro0:38 Catch-Up: Jan at the League Cup Final05:45 Why did Kehl leave Dortmund?09:49 Who is Dortmund's New Sporting Director?15:19 Kwasniok Fired by Köln19:54 Gnabry's Resurgence21:53 Bayern Chasing Historic Record25:58 Eintracht lose to Mainz!
