BVB boss puzzled
Watzke on Süle: “We have a new player?”
BVB boss Hans-Joachim Watzke has expressed his surprise at the transformation of central defender Niklas Süle. "We have a new player?" joked the outgoing managing director after Süle had recently presented himself in top physical condition.
It seems that not even the BVB boss himself can believe what he is seeing at the moment. The transformation that Süle has undergone in recent weeks also amazes those in charge at Dortmund. After all, the central defender, whose lack of discipline in terms of fitness and nutrition has been repeatedly criticized, has lost around eight kilos and appears to be in an amazing state of fitness.
"I thought: My God, we have a new player," Watzke told Bild about his first thoughts when he saw photos of Süle. Despite his astonishment, the outgoing BVB boss is naturally pleased with the defender's development.
Süle wants to seize his chance
"It's admirable how he's managed that. I prefer it a thousand times better when someone admits a mistake and makes the appropriate deductions, then that's cool," said Watzke, full of praise for Süle. He now sees a great opportunity for the central defender to prove himself to everyone once again. There would be no two opinions about the 28-year-old's qualities anyway.
Behind his new physical top form is a special program with a fitness trainer and a change in diet. Süle was apparently motivated by the new BVB coach Nuri Sahin. Süle already feels a great deal of trust from him and is determined to repay it.
