Borussia Dortmund had the backing of every neutral ahead of the Champions League final – then they went and signed a sponsorship deal with a weapons manufacturer.ย
Weapons manufacturers have no place in football. @BVB pic.twitter.com/7ha9AZ2FQ2

Has any club ever destroyed so much goodwill in one go?
Dortmund choosing the day before the UCL Final, a game where literally everyone is supporting them, to announce a sponsorship deal with an ARMS DEALER is potentially the worst PR move of all time
— Ollie (@TalkCPFC) May 31, 2024
Wanted BVB to win tomorrow but after seeing them sign deals with arms manufacturer as sponsor (who is delivering arms to a conflict where Palestinian children are being blown up daily) and feature them for UCL final, itโs Hala Madrid for me too like so many of you
