Abstract

ABSTRACT Bakery Jatta migrated from The Gambia to Germany during the so-called ‘refugee crisis’. Today, he is a professional soccer player and plays for Hamburger SV. His story has been widely reported in mass media. This article explores the question ‘How did German newspapers report on Bakery Jatta?’ based on a discourse analysis of a catalogue of 270 German newspaper articles published between 2016 and 2019. The articles included in the catalogue cover five major topics: Jatta’s performance; his biography; contract and transfer; legal issues, and expressions of solidarity for or of hostility towards him. The media reporting spanned three phases, which saw Bakery Jatta’s media portrayal mutate from hero to anti-hero. Bild served as the forerunner in this transformation, with the other newspapers following the tabloid’s lead. The reporting on Bakery Jatta exemplifies, echoes and connects different discourses on the ‘refugee crisis’ and on soccer’s integrative power.

在所谓的“难民危机”期间，面包房贾塔从冈比亚移民到德国。如今，他是一名职业足球运动员，效力于汉堡SV。他的故事被大众媒体广泛报道。这篇文章探讨了“德国报纸是如何报道面包房Jatta的?”该研究基于对2016年至2019年期间发表的270篇德国报纸文章目录的话语分析。收录在目录中的文章涵盖了五大主题:Jatta的表演;他的传记;合同和转让;法律问题，表达对他的支持或敌意。媒体的报道跨越了三个阶段，在这三个阶段中，Bakery Jatta的媒体形象从英雄变成了反英雄。《图片报》是这一转变的先驱，其他报纸紧随其后。对Bakery Jatta的报道体现、呼应并连接了关于“难民危机”和足球一体化力量的不同论述。
