Earlier this year, Tan made the transition to the Borussia Dortmund women’s team, known as Borussia Dortmund Frauen (BVB Frauen), and participated in the club’s preseason matches starting in July.
Notably, she holds the distinction of being the first female signing from Asia for the German side.
Danelle Tan also featured in Borussia Dortmund Frauen’s league opener on 27 August, where they secured a 5-1 victory against SC Drolshagen.
Borussia Dortmund is a German professional sports club based in Dortmund, North Rhine-Westphalia.
The club is best known for its men’s professional football team, which plays in the Bundesliga, the top tier of the German football league system.
Despite the relatively recent formation of BVB Frauen in 2021, the women’s football team has made remarkable strides in German football, achieving consecutive championships.
Currently, they occupy the top spot in the league table after just two games played.
