Deep in the Black Forest in south-western Germany lies the 2025/26 season's most wholesome fairytale.
Freiburg is proof that football doesn't have to fall victim to money, greed, and short-term thinking. Sometimes, sustainability and long-term planning can prevail — and create remarkable success stories.
From Volker Finke to Christian Streich, this is the story of a football club that went against the tendencies of modern football and still won in its own way. They are now in their first-ever European competition final — the only German club represented across this season’s three European finals.
For a football romantic like Marcus, their story offers hope that there is another way.
