ONE year into establishing their first ever foreign representative office outside of Germany here - led by a Singaporean, no less - German football club Borussia Dortmund's goal has become clear: to expand their fanbase in football-mad Asia.
To do that, the eight-time Bundesliga champions flew its star-studded squad here on Wednesday as part of its week-long pre-season tour to meet and connect with fans.
Singapore is the second of three stops, after Japan and before Malaysia. It thrashed J-League club Kawasaki Frontale 6-0 in a friendly on Tuesday and played Johor Darul Tazim across the causeway at Larkin Stadium on Thursday night.
