Zenit St. Petersburg II Overview

Jonathan Tah is eager to secure the DFL-Supercup against Borussia Dortmund as he begins his second season at Bayern Munich. The centre-back has also set his sights on growing into a leadership role and significantly improving the team's defensive record this term.

Niko Kovac is planning to use Maximilian Beier as a wing-back at Borussia Dortmund. That is reminiscent of Kovac's approach at Bayern Munich and is likely once again to deprive an attacking player of his greatest strengths.

If Borussia Dortmund do indeed submit the reported offer for Said El Mala to 1. FC Cologne, nothing apparently stands in the way of a transfer.

While Borussia Dortmund are going all in in the battle for Said El Mala, 1. FC Cologne have apparently already found a successor for the breakout star.
