He enjoys the highest standing among the players,” said sporting director Roland Virkus. “He is one of the faces of Borussia, so we are happy to have him on board in the future.”

Oliver Neuville said: “I love being close to the team, feeling the pitch under my shoes and being able to show the boys things with the ball. Being able to do that at Borussia is all the more special and I am grateful for this. The club has become kind of a second family for me.”

Neuville has worked as an assistant coach to the Borussia first team since the 2019/20 season. Before this, he was assistant coach of Borussia U19s for seven years.
