Overview

• Dortmund’s 2024/25 revenue rose 3.3 percent year-on-year to a club-record €526 million.
• Net profit fell to €6.5 million after tax, down from €44.3 million, driven by a steep decline in transfer income.
• Player sales generated roughly €50 million from Niclas Füllkrug and Donyell Malen, leaving a €60 million shortfall compared with the previous year’s blockbuster Jude Bellingham transfer.
• Earnings from sponsorship and TV rights increased by €28 million, partly cushioning the impact of weaker player-sale revenues.
• CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke will step down to pursue the presidency following a late-season sporting rally that secured Champions League qualification and a quarter-final run.
