After his loan to Copenhagen, Diant Ramaj does not want to sit on the bench at Borussia Dortmund, the goalkeeper, who was obliged by the black and yellow in February, made it clear to the “Sport Bild”. Because there is no pass by regular goalkeeper Gregor Kobel (27) for the time being, the next loan business is emerging. As “Sky” reports, the 1. FC Heidenheim is pushing for a transfer of 23-year-old Ramaj.
The Borussia and the FCH are therefore in advanced talks. Several clubs should express interest in the goalkeeper, but Ramaj can well imagine returning to Heidenheim. A change now mainly depends on BVB. The native of Stuttgart had tied to the Dortmund in the long term until 2029, but underpinned his ambitions. Between 2018 and 2021 he was already active for the 1st FC Heidenheim in the offspring before he first moved to Eintracht Frankfurt. From there it continued to Ajax Amsterdam before BVB surprisingly accessed FC Copenhagen for 5 million euros in early 2025 for 5 million euros.
“I really enjoyed the season in Copenhagen, it is fantastic what we have achieved. And for me it is clear: I have to be on the pitch, get minutes, game practice. So it is clear to me: I don’t sit on the bench in Dortmund!” Explained the confident Ramaj. “It is clear to me that I will not come to Dortmund to get back there, have no chance of playing behind Gregor Kobel.” Sentences that, according to “Sport1” at the Dortmund responsible, have been surprised.
The “Ruhr Nachrichten” then said that Ramaj should be awarded to a club from the top European 5 leagues in order to prepare for the successor of Kobel in perspective, which Ramaj is trusted with at BVB. Its market value was once 18 million euros, since his non -consideration at Ajax he slipped to EUR 7 million. In Heidenheim, Ramaj would meet long -time number 1 Kevin Müller.

What effects a change of Ramaj’s role and future would have is currently unclear. The 34-year-old has had a contract until 2027 since his extension in January and is the longest serving professional in the team. Müller had previously dealt with a possible farewell from Heidenheim, but agreed with his club on a new contract. “It would have been negligent from the club not to look around. And for me it was the same. But in the end I had the feeling that the club definitely wanted to continue with me. And vice versa, we made a decision relatively quickly to set a positive sign at the time,” said Müller in the transfer market interview in mid-June.
