How Borussia Dortmund could line up this season with Erling Haaland and Jadon Sancho leading the line
By Tushar Bahl
Goalkeeper: Roman Bürki
No prizes for guessing who will be in goal for Borussia Dortmund this season. Roman Bürki signed a two year contract extension in June, and will be lining up between the sticks once again heading into his sixth season with the Black and Yellows.
Bürki is one of the most polarising figures in the Borussia Dortmund squad. The 29 year old kept 13 clean sheets last season (second only to Manuel Neuer), but had the third worst save percentage in the Bundesliga (60.9%). While he is a solid presence in goal more often than not, he is also prone to making costly errors. Two of his errors last season came in crucial games at home to RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich, and both proved to be very costly for his side.
Bürki’s stock is still high at Borussia Dortmund, as evidenced by the contract extension. However, those in charge will be hoping for more consistency from their first choice goalkeeper as they look to fight for the Bundesliga title this season.
