The dugout

Kevin Diks says Borussia Mönchengladbach went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad

A day Tim Kleindienst will not forget

3 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Squad

Match

Tim Kleindienst sends Borussia Mönchengladbach past TSG Hoffenheim

It finished 3‑1, and it was Tim Kleindienst’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Transfer targets

SC Freiburg tell Borussia Mönchengladbach: Andrej Ilić is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

In brief
