When you hear the name Borussia Dortmund, you immediately think of an extreme flair for bringing in the greatest talents, developing them further and selling them to the giants. In recent years it has been Pulisic, Sancho, Haaland, Bellingham. Behind the enormous success in the transfer market, Eduard Graf has played a central role. On Saturday, he was slapped in at Besiktas.
The 35-year-old finished at the Bundesliga club in November, now he starts as technical and scouting director at Besiktas, according to the club’s website.
At Dortmund, Graf was directly behind the signings of Maximilian Beier, Waldemar Anton, Felix Nmecha, as well as loan deals with Ian Maatsen and Jadon Sancho.
Solskjaer’s work with the Besiktas players to change the game and win games again, in parallel with building a new and solid foundation at the club, is really taking shape.
