A Borussia Dortmund fan has been banned for breaking into his team's stadium and playing football with himself — NAKED.

The 25-year-old scaled the fence outside the 80,000 capacity Westfalenstadion before making his way down to the pitch.

The man said it was a lifelong dream to play at Dortmund's famed ground.

German police, when asked about the trespasser's nakedness, reported that the fan had taken his clothes off after getting too warm under the Westfalenstadion floodlights.

Security were alerted when the supporter's body movement triggered a sensor, which in turn alerted the authorities.

Local police told Sky: "The winter break of the Bundesliga is used to prepare for the second half of the season. It seems a supporter of Borussia Dortmund used the pitch of the Signal-Iduna Park for his own private match."

The Bundesliga is currently on its month-long winter break and Dortmund's next home game isn't until January 30.
