When China tackles something, it changes sustainably – this is currently also true for soccer. In the CEO Talk with China.Table, the local head of BVB talks about the interests of Dortmund fans in China. They are also becoming more and more economically important for a traditional German club. Benjamin Wahl explains: In China, as in Germany, it is the special emotional bond with the club that accounts for its success. But even though China itself has enough former steel and coal regions, the clientele there is quite different from that in the Ruhrpott; it is comparatively more international and more female. Wahl also assesses the prospects of success for Chinese football for us. He also talks about the different training methods in a country where teachers are still real persons of respect.
