| | | Emotional goodbye for Dede and Nuri Sahin | | | | [14.05.] Even the sky cried on Saturday when Dede and Nuri Sahin were standing arm in arm on the pitch before Borussia Dortmundīs final Bundesliga game of the season against Eintracht Frankfurt. After more than 10 years in a BVB shirt, both players are leaving the club this summer. Sporting director Michael Zorc and chairman Hans-Joachim Watzke presented them with a bouquet of black and yellow sunflowers and pictures of their careers. | | |  | | Goodbye with tears in his eyes: Sahin. [dpa] | "Thank you, thank you, thank you", Norbert Dickel shouted through the stadium speakers, and all fans rose from their seats and thanked them with a huge round of applause for their contributions for the club over the years.
Dede and Sahin then together walked to the south stand where a number of banners were held up. While Sahin, who joined BVB as a 12-year-old and now moves to Real Madrid, did the "wave" with the supporters, fan-favourite Dede went on a lap of honour.
He was carrying a pile of yellow T-shirts which he gave away to the fans. It said: "Thank you for 13 wonderful years".
