In front of his hometown team, Brandt was at the center of most of Dortmund’s upswings, in addition to scoring the goal to seal the 2-0 victory with an excellent individual effort. From being “outlined”, Brandt is the most reliable spearhead of the yellow-black shirt team. What happen?
The most important change is in the physical. At the moment, Brandt is one of Dortmund’s strongest and most enduring players, as coach Edin Terzic noted after the match against Bremen. “Julian is in perfect shape,” he said, “He has always been one of the team’s longest runners and is currently our most consistent player.” According to Brandt’s own explanation, it was all thanks to a change in diet.
“I changed my diet a year ago,” Brandt reveals, “I limit my intake of foods containing gluten (noodles, cereals, etc.) and histamine (a common allergen found in fish and seafood). produce). So now my fitness is very different.” Brandt’s other major problem in the past, atopic dermatitis, has also been resolved. Now, he is both fit and comfortable, and therefore able to reach his full potential on the field.
With 6 goals (in addition to 4 assists), Brandt is leading Dortmund’s scorer list in the Bundesliga this season (equal to Moukoko’s achievement). He is three more goals away from his personal best (Brandt has three times scored nine times in a Bundesliga season). However, given what is showing, it is only a matter of time for Brandt.
