This season was the first since 2011–12 without midfielder and former club captain Marco Reus, and the first since 2018–19 without defender and former club captain Mats Hummels, who both departed after the end of their contracts, marking the first Borussia Dortmund season since 2006–07 without either of the two at the club.
Summary
On 13 June, Dortmund announced the departure of coach Edin Terzić after spending two seasons in his second spell with the club.[1]
On 22 January, Sebastian Kehl and CEO Lars Ricken announced Nuri Şahin would leave the club with immediate effect, after suffering 4 straight defeats in the first 4 games of 2025.[2]
Niko Kovač, who was appointed on 2 February, led the club from eleventh place to a fourth-placed finish, securing qualification to the 2025–26 UEFA Champions League.
In the UEFA Champions League, BVB were unable to turn over the 4–0 away defeat against Barcelona despite a 3–1 win at the Signal-Iduna-Park on April 15, resulting in the club's elimination from the competition.
With 21 goals in the Bundesliga, Serhou Guirassy finished the season as the second highest goalscorer, for the second season running, behind Bayern Munich's Harry Kane with 26 goals.
In the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, Dortmund were drawn into Group F alongside Fluminense, Ulsan HD and Mamelodi Sundowns.
