Exciting Club World Cup draw for Borussia Dortmund
The Black and Yellows will begin their Club World Cup campaign in the group stage against Fluminense FC, before facing Mamelodi Sundowns FC and Ulsan HD in Group F.
A few tough tests could lie in store for Borussia Dortmund in the group stage of the 2025 Club World Cup, with Fluminense FC having a number of talented players like Thiago Silva, Kauã Elias, and several others in their ranks.
Ulsan HD are led by striker Min-kyu Joo and winger Gustav Ludwigson. While goalkeeper Ronwen Williams of the Mamelodi Sundowns FC recently became the first South African footballer to be nominated for a Ballon d'Or award (Yashin Trophy).
