"The museum is a great venue and we're really happy to be represented here again," said Schade. Bayer 04 have already donated an exhibit to the German Football Museum: The shirt worn by Bellarabi at Borussia Dortmund in 2014 when he scored the fastest goal in the history of the Bundesliga just nine seconds into the match.
"It's an honour for us to be able to display this historic shirt worn by Karim Bellarabi," said Manuel Neukirchner, the museum director. Since opening in 2015, the German Football Museum, located opposite the main Dortmund station, has attracted fans from across Germany and has continued to expand its large range of unique exhibits. Now it's even more worth a visit for Bayer 04 fans.
