Julien Duranville: Borussia Dortmund’s Rising Star and Impressive Debut

2023-07-14 04:34:00

It was only the modest team of Westfalia Rhynern, residents of the fifth German division, but Borussia Dortmund’s first warm-up match (won 0-7) has already delivered several lessons for its Belgians. First for Thomas Meunier and Thorgan Hazard who had the opportunity to show themselves by playing the first 45 minutes, despite the insistent rumors of departure. Then, for Julian Duranville who has already scored points for the coming season.

Up at the break, the young 17-year-old winger brought his speed and percussion to blast the opposing defense. With more selfishness, he might even have scored his first goal for the BVB A team. Failing that, he preferred to offer the 0-5 ball to Paul-Philipp Besong. “I was really looking forward to playing once morest the little Duranville, entrusted Patrick Franke, the opposing defender, to the Westfälischer Anzeiger. He is extremely fast, does some really confusing moves and has good technique. I think he will still be nice to look at in the black and yellow jersey.”

Duranville speaks for the first time with Dortmund: “Lukaku is like my big brother”

The Anderlecht-trained player also impressed Dortmund followers. “He had already impressed us a lot during the match once morest Mainz (Editor’s note: at the end of last season) and also showed his talent on Wednesday, confides Dirk Krampe, journalist at Ruhr Nachrichten. Of course, it was only a preparation match once morest a D5 team, but you can already see his great talent: he is very fast and very agile with the ball at his feet.

In his workforce, Edin Terzic however has other very good wingers that it will be difficult to shake up in his 4-3-3: Adeyemi, Mallen or Bynoe-Gittens. “There are also other players who can help out on the sides: Reus, Reyna, Brandt and maybe Moukoko, continues Dirk Krampe. The competition is therefore great. I think Terzic will use him from the bench. But depending on the game situation, he will not hesitate to throw it. Terzic definitely thinks highly of him, otherwise he wouldn’t have started him once morest Mainz.”

Arrived last winter from Anderlecht once morest 8.5 million euros but injured for several months, Duranville will therefore use this first real season to confirm his talent, little by little. “Of course, he still has to learn and improve in all areas, especially physically. It will also be interesting to see how he can hold his own when the opponents get to know him better. That was his big advantage once morest Mainz: opponents didn’t even know how he plays and moves.
