‘Dead to me’: Bundesliga reporter shares severe Dortmund reaction to Klopp’s new role

Jurgen Klopp has returned to football, and while many Liverpool fans appear to support his comeback, Borussia Dortmund fans do not seem as enthusiastic.
ESPN Bundesliga reporter Archie Rhind-Tutt shared insights on X, noting the strong reactions from BVB supporters: “Football is dead. He’s absolutely dead to me. That makes me sick.”
This reaction might surprise Liverpool fans, but a deeper look reveals why Dortmund supporters feel this way.
Fan ownership is crucial in Germany, and Red Bull’s entry into the sport through Leipzig has stirred significant controversy. They managed to reshape the club by persuading remaining members to accept financial changes, which has left other clubs feeling resentful.
Dortmund fans, who value tradition and community, resent teams that leverage financial power to achieve success—something they associate with Red Bull.
Klopp’s decision to compete directly against Dortmund and Mainz has likely damaged his standing among fans of his former clubs.
In the Premier League, this situation is seen as a favorable return, but had it occurred closer to home, the reaction might have been quite different.
