"Signing Lucien Favre as coach is an important part of our fresh sporting start this summer," he said.  "He is highly valued by us for his professional qualities, which he has impressively shown several times in the Bundesliga with Hertha and Monchengladbach, just like at Nice."Peter Bosz was relieved of his own duties in December, with Dortmund enduring something of a turbulent season. Indeed, the club finished the season a mammoth 29 points behind champions Bayern Munich, and eight behind second-placed local rivals Schalke. They finished fourth by virtue of goal difference, having ended the campaign level on points with both third-placed Hoffenheim and fifth-placed Bayer Leverkusen.</blockquote>
