Borussia Dortmund is known for bringing forward young players. Mario Götze (31), Jadon Sancho (23), Erling Haaland (23) and most recently Jude Bellingham (20) all fall into this category. The next BVB gem expected to have a similarly steep career is 17-year-old Paris Brunner.
The centre-forward with Congolese roots is considered a great young hope throughout Germany. At this year’s European U17 Championships, he helped the DFB team win the European Championship and was named the tournament’s best player. He is also the winner of the Fritz Walter Gold Medal, the highest award in German youth football. In the current U19 Bundesliga season, the Clipper also scored no fewer than ten goals in seven games and recently joined the first team.
All this makes it clear: Brunner is not just a junior – but the crown jewel of BVB. What happened this week is all the more astonishing.
An “incident” moves Dortmund
Brunner has been officially suspended since Wednesday – according to the club for “disciplinary reasons”. For the time being, he is no longer allowed to participate in Dortmund’s matches and training; he must remain fit individually. According to “Sport1”, those responsible are currently even considering terminating the contract. It’s fitting that he already had to empty his locker. But what exactly the acclaimed teen committed remains a mystery.
“He is an extremely talented player who has trained very well with us in recent weeks. But there was an incident that forced us to take this measure,” BVB coach Edin Terzic said on Thursday.
This ‘incident’ – which BVB will not elaborate on as much as possible – stirs the Dortmund fan base and speculations are springing up like mushrooms. What seems clear is that Brunner’s offense appears serious.
U17 World Cup in danger?
According to club spokesperson Sven Westerschulze, it is important for BVB to protect Brunner – that is why they are not disclosing any further information for the time being. “Because Paris is still a minor, we have a responsibility to the player.”
Not only Borussia Dortmund is affected by the suspension of the storm jewel. The whole thing also has an impact on the DFB. The German U17 team actually wanted to count on Brunner’s goals at the World Cup in Indonesia in November. But now the association is also in discussions about excluding Brunner, writes ‘Sport1’.
The question is whether what Brunner is guilty of will come to light. But it is already clear that the top talent has probably sabotaged his own promotion. (sbe)
