BVB is reportedly already preparing for a possible Favre-Aus. Two coaches with a FC Bayern past should be at the top of Matthias Sammer's list.
- Lucien Favre has been counted several times at Borussia Dortmund .
- BVB is reportedly preparing for a separation scenario .
- Matthias Sammer is said to have identified two successor candidates - both were at FC Bayern * .
Dortmund - Lucien Favre and BVB . Somehow this relationship just doesn't want to be real love. Too few emotions and hardly any sturdy statements have meant that the Dortmund fan soul does not seem to be warming up with the Swiss. If the results and / or appearances are not correct , the coach is quickly counted at Borussia .
Lucien Favre and BVB: coaches already counted several times
Especially after the, from a black and yellow point of view, more than depressing end of last season when the Bundesliga title * was gambled away despite a nine point lead, even more violently during the Dortmund weak phase at the end of 2019.

After the defeat against Bayer Leverkusen, things went very well again this year. The games against Eintracht Frankfurt and Paris Saint-Germain were declared by some sides to be fate games for Lucien Favre.
Borussia Dortmund: Lucien Favre wins important games - but there is an ejection seat button
A gala appearance against the eagles and the breast-releasing victory against the French star troop later, the coach should be firmly in the saddle again , one might think. But far from it . According to SportBild , the BVB bosses are already working on a back-up plan in the background, should it not go on with Favre .
One can assume that in the Champions League it is mainly the appearance and the results alone that determine the well-being of the trainer. Dortmund are said to have defined a clear ejection seat button for the Bundesliga .
Lucien Favre: When THAT happens, Dortmund puts the trainer outside the door
As soon as the qualification for the Champions League is at risk, it is said that it will be uncomfortable for Favre . The club management is probably afraid of a similar spring low as you had to experience in 2019. And it's hard to avoid overlooking the surprise bag character of the current Borussia elf .
So when Favre starts to stumble, it should fall in summer at the latest. If his team disappointed in the premier class or, in the worst case, actually missed the qualification for the new season, another coach is likely to iron this out.
BVB is preparing for Favre-Aus: Two ex-FC Bayern stars probably on top of the list
Under no circumstances do the BVB bosses want to slip into such a scenario unprepared. That's why Matthias Sammer is already sounding out the possible reactions, reports SportBild .
Two coaches are particularly eye-catching to the former Munich . Both have exactly this past in common with Sammer . One once led Bayern to the pitch as a captain and the other has hardly been wished for by many FCB fans since he left.
Mark van Bommel on Borussia Dortmund? Ex-FCB captain on BVB radar
The former is Mark van Bommel . The Dutchman, known as Raubein at the time of the game, coined the term "aggressive leader" as Munich captain and is now considered a coach with a clear approach and clear tactical specifications, which also brought him into conversation with the Munich team.
Things are not going so well for him and PSV Eindhoven at the moment, they are only fourth place, eleven points behind the top of the table, but the past season has not yet been forgotten.
At that time, the Bommel team only lost three times in 34 games , losing even in one game less than the eventual champions Ajax Amsterdam. And it is exactly behind this, or rather his coach, that Mark van Bommel must now line up on Dortmund's wish list .
Erik ten Hag probably Dortmund's dream coach number one - should Favre fail
Erik ten Hag and his surprise teams were the hot team of last season. The championship with a strong 86 points was almost an accessory. De Ligt, de Jong and Co. played an international role in the Champions League. Here they switched off spectacular Real Madrid and Juventus among other things.
Erik ten Hag played well-kept, but also exciting football and became the focus of many top European clubs. Above all, FC Bayern * is said to have had the greatest interest after the Kovac Aus to guide the Dutchman back to the Isar.
Erik ten Hag to Borussia Dortmund? He knows Matthias Sammer from FC Bayern
This is exactly what Matthias Sammer did in summer 2013. Today's Dortmund consultant signed the then 43-year-old for the second team of the German record champions.
Since then, the contact between the two is said to have never completely fallen asleep, and even today Sammer is impressed by Erik ten Hag's work .
So ten Hag should now be the number one dream coach if BVB should part with Favre . And if the worst comes to the worst, the chances are obviously far from bad. And even the Dortmund fans do not seem averse to the rival despite the past.
Erik ten Hag would be a great solution. One can only hope
