Hupu August 15th News On August 1, 2025, Borussia Mönchengladbach ushered in a meaningful anniversary: the 125th anniversary of the club's establishment - full of brilliant achievements and unforgettable characters.
Sky TV documentary "Legend of Borussia Monchengladbach: The 125th Anniversary of Legend" will be launched on the Sky Documentary Channel from August 29, and the first part can be broadcast on the on-demand. The documentary depicts the touching scenes of this traditional club.
Episode 1 (Part 2 will be filmed in autumn) focuses on the exclusive reunion of Monchengladbach legend Gent Nezer (80) and Lotal Mattus (64).
Christoph Kramer (34) also shared his love for plate tennis. Tim Cleindingster (29) and assistant coach Oliver Neuville (52) showed a surprising dart talent.
By the way, Bayern head coach Vincent Kompany almost joined Borussia Dortmund in 2022!
The then-Bronchengladder sports director Roland Velkus noticed Kompany after Adidas Huttel left and was very keen to sign the coach who worked at the Real Anderlecht Club at the time.
Question: Vilkus failed to obtain permission from then-Bonchengladbach president Rolf Koenigs (83 years old) because he was not interested in Kompani.
On the contrary, he prefers to reunite with Lucien Favre (67), because Favre helped Borussia Mönchengladbach avoid relegation to the second division in 2011 and even returned to the European arena.
Verkus flew to Switzerland and reached an agreement with Favre. His assistant coaches had signed the contract until Favre (who secretly left Borussia Mönchengladbach in 2015) suddenly retreated and directly took Borussia Mönchengladbach.
Verkus finally obtained permission from Kooniges to sign Kompany and called the Belgian immediately. Kompany replied on the phone: "It's so a pity, I signed with Burnley yesterday."
Verkus ended up not choosing Kompany or Favre, but chose Daniel Falke - but he had to leave after just one season...
