Technical Director Sven Mislintat: With one notable exception, things seem to be business as usual for Mike Tullberg. While the 39-year-old Dane used to typically prepare Borussia Dortmund's under-19 side for the Youth League, he now finds himself coaching the senior team in its upcoming clash against Shakhtar - an interim solution after Nuri Sahin's dismissal.

Given that direct qualification for the next round of the newly formed 2024-2025 UEFA Champions League appears unlikely, and with the play-offs already secured, Tullberg's task is to deliver a respectable performance amid a deep sporting and structural crisis for last year's Champions League finalists.

BVB remains in limbo, seemingly in need of a squad overhaul and leadership restructuring. On top of that is the pressing need to find a new head coach - possibly two - one to guide the team until the season's end and another to oversee a more extensive rebuild, reports Xinhua.
