This extended version of the football travel podcast is a collaboration with the Borussia Dortmund London Fan Club Podcast and we’re discussing the critical topic of sustainability in football.

From clubs to fans to football authorities, what can we all do to make the sport more environmentally friendly?

The debate features:
