Notwithstanding any other media reports Erlang Haaland has no contractual release clause at Borussia Dortmund. This was confirmed BVB CEO Hans-Joachim Wake at the annual general meeting of Borussia Dortmund GmbH & Co. GAA.
An exit clause I can not confirm, said Wake to the question of a BVB shareholder of a possible departure of Norwegian striker this summer.
For Haaland a fixed transfer fee of 75 million to 90 million euros to exist — probably on the basis of a verbal agreement with the player side. More than 90 percent of our players' contracts do not contain exit clauses, Wake pointed out.
BVB: Serious allegations against Wake and Zorn
In no uncertain terms the BVB boss responded to the accusation by a shareholder, he and Champions Leagueing director Michael Zorn would fill up with players selling their own pockets. This fulfills the offense of defamation, said Wake.
The club boss also spoke about the cooperation with Matthias Summer. He advises me as ultimately responsible in Champions League strategic issues. He shall be highly qualified.
Summer's contract with Dortmund running out next summer, confirmed Wake. We talk about an extension in the spring.
Champions League from the BVB a huge disappointment
After the bitter Champions League off to Wake wishes in the new year winning the Europa League. This is the title that Borussia Dortmund is still missing, said Wake.
Early exit in the feasible Champions League group with Ajax, Champions Leagueing and Besides founded Wake also with the prolonged outage of Haaland. Still, this was a huge disappointment, the 62-year-old, reminiscent of the 2011/2012 season was.
At that time we have become at the end of German champions and DFB Cup winner. Also, as we have failed in the fall than preliminary round fourth in the Champions League. We must also now convert back into positive energy, Wake said. We have to keep working, we 13 million euros retrieve by winning the Euro-League.

The permit was for the toolbox, to strengthen capital and liquidity.

We finally come to a consolidated net loss of 72.8 million euros. After depreciation, the calculation of player values and lease obligations, BVB is a negative result of 67 million euros.
+++ Tree on Transfer revenue +++
The chief financial officer is now on the transfer charges to speak. The transfer charges have fallen compared to last year, we were able to make only 23.1 million euros as net transfer payment claims in 2020 there were 109 million euros.
+++ +++ sponsorship and merchandising
About sponsoring the CFO determines the revenue increase from 98 to 106.5 million euros before. Even I myself would like to thank Crater CEO Carsten here. The guiding principle was the idea here to split the sleeves sponsors depending on the competition. In addition, the negotiation and renewal had with supplier Puma to this increase.
The merchandising is loud Tree to decreased 700,000 euros, which is facing the pandemic an outstanding result, as I emphasize want. Thus, despite the long time closed shops have almost reached the previous year's mark of 32.5 million euros.
+++ Managing Tree goes to the podium +++
I will now present the consolidated balance sheet, and go to the assets of a financial chief leads Thomas Tress off after introductory acceptance speech, mentioned in which he explicitly the employees, the management and the former board member Herd Piper.
Tree now goes through each item. The bottom line is in total assets over the previous year, a decline of 67.5 million euros. The area club had until June 30, liabilities in the amount of 56.9 million euros, thanks to the capital increase, the financial liabilities are the present state but with zero as Tree executed with thanks to the counter-signatory.
+++ +++ Wake thanked
I would like to thank all those who make this day here today. The bodies in the staff. I have already received the criticism that we have no one sent in short-time working or layoffs were received. There were voices from some. Shareholders But we, as management, we are not prepared to do that in such a situation, the employees remember the trust -. That is much more important than profit-oriented strategies I also thank all partners and the limited partners.
I also thank my friend Herd Piper, which is an extraordinary person. For someone like him is the name seigneur grand created, which has always been an outstanding partner. He has done for Borussia Dortmund standout. Those were my comments, thank you.
+++ +++ Wake over Champions Leagueing
Last season we won the German Cup, which shows that the BVB is able to win titles. This underlines the trend of recent years, it should stay that hopefully that way. We are, and we are very disappointed, but resigned from the Champions League. We have on balance not played well. We have to hold against us. There are reasons, such as Erlang Haaland could not play or this red card against Mats Hummels. But you can see that it already happened once, about 11/12. At that time we have become at the end of German champions and DFB Cup winner. Also, as we have failed in the fall than preliminary round fourth in the Champions League.
We now have to transform into positive energy and progress in the Europa League. This is still lacking the only title that Borussia Dortmund. We should not lament more that now we lack these 13 million euros. But in the Europa League are also some high-caliber, like AC Milan, Tottenham Hotspur and Naples. In the Bundesliga, our yield is not yet very good, in the DFB Cup, we are on track. I have great confidence in Marco Rose, in the Champions Leagueing management to Michael Zorn and Sebastian Keel, his successor. Now we can take the championship lead this weekend.
But I'm not ready to say: We must. The limit is that we initiate life-threatening measures. That is our limit, otherwise we are ambitious without limit.
+++ +++ Wake about upcoming goals
For the first time we have taken in sponsoring over 100 million euros, thanks to Carsten Crater. Even if we have to play the financial year with significantly fewer viewers, we will continue to drive digitization. We were always instructed in recent years in the internationalization of digitization, we work around it to create a digital football school.
Another issue is sustainability, in addition we have specially established a separate department. We will produce sustainable merchandise.
+++ Wake overlooking the Bayern game +++
I can understand the fans, of course, understand in view of the forthcoming outsell, the German Classic. That now many can not participate. But it is also with a view onto the infection process, not to make it above the now 26,000 registered fans.
+++ Wake about viewers reduction +++
It is now so that our Annual General Meeting in time with the Prime Minister meeting together is. We now need a reduction of the spectators. The Bundesliga matches were not infectious driver that I want to say clearly once again. The argument with the public Nachverkehr pulls in me given the spectators reduction not. I am the NRW state government very grateful to the reduction of the stadium capacity to two-thirds done. If many viewers are coming by car, on foot or by bike, we really do not need public Nachverkehr.
+++ Wake begins his speech +++
Love Kommanditaktionärinnen and limited partners, dear guests, I'll say something especially about the ongoing situation around COVID-19. For all financial matters later Thomas Tress is elaborate. Against the background of Covid-19, our business model stops working as planned. We had. If we can not play in front of packed stadiums before the first ghost game a stock quote from nine to ten euros, it is difficult. I thank all those who took part in the capital increase. This has contributed to stability.
