Niko Kovac starts at BVB - on the Champions League!

The Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund has announced an exciting newcomer: Diant Ramaj, a talented German goalkeeper, switches from Ajax Amsterdam to the black yellow. How laola1.at is reported to five million Euro. The 23-year-old, who competed with Remko Pasveer at Ajax this season, signed a long-term contract until 2029. Interestingly, Ramaj is first awarded to FC Copenhagen in order to collect game practice there and replace Nathan Trott as a trotting goalkeeper. BVB sports director Sebastian Kehl expressed himself optimistically: "Diant is a young German goalkeeper who still has a lot of development potential."

Niko Kovac takes over the trainer office

In the meantime, Niko Kovac has started his journey at Borussia Dortmund as the new head coach. The 53-year-old, who recently signed a contract until the summer of 2026, competed in Dortmund-Brackel on Sunday morning, such as bvb.de reported. After a successful 2-1 win against 1. FC Heidenheim, Kovac welcomed both the players of the first team and his coaching team to a first training session. The aim is to lead Borussia Dortmund back into the Champions League places, both in the Bundesliga and in the Conference League.

While Ramaj will prepare for his time in Copenhagen, Kovac has little time to get used to the conditions in Dortmund. His debut as a coach of Borussia Dortmund will take place next Saturday against direct competitor VfB Stuttgart. An official press conference for the presentation of Kovac will take place on Tuesday, which will be transferred live to BVB-TV.
