Klopp: Dortmund are "special"

Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp has urged neutral fans to support his side during the Champions League final against Bayern Munich at London's Wembley Stadium on Saturday.

The 45-year-old claims that football followers should back his "special" team against the corporate Bayern.

"We are a club, not a company but it depends on which kind of story the neutral fan wants to hear," he told The Guardian.

"If he respects the story of Bayern and how much they have won since the 1970s, he can support them.

"But if he wants the new story, the special story, it must be Dortmund. I think, in this moment in the football world, you have to be on our side."

Dortmund last won the Champions League in 1997.
