This is what he got out of it – from a late career move that no one could have expected: six and a half hours on a private plane from Philadelphia back to his new home, barely sleeping and extremely tired, not really ready to train on Wednesday because of jet lag and in the Wald-Inn in the evening , where he is staying in Dortmund for the time being, a baguette on his hand to combat his late hunger and his distorted biorhythm. Sounds stressful. But what don’t you do for the sweet taste of success. Niclas Füllkrug is floating a little higher above the clouds than usual. National player at 29, Bundesliga top scorer and Champions League for the first time in his career at 30. Hard to stop in the early autumn of your career.
