During the 2003–04 German football season, Borussia Dortmund competed in the Bundesliga.
Season summary Dortmund failed to qualify for the Champions League group stage, and followed that up with a disappointing sixth-place finish in the Bundesliga. The club's poor form was mainly a result of playmaker Tomáš Rosický's absence through virtually half of the season. The poor form led to the dismissal of coach Matthias Sammer, while the club's economy got ever more strained. Players First-team squad Squad at end of season
