Will Borussia Dortmund step up their offensive game this winter? Two stars, Jadon Sancho and Serhou Guirassy, are currently closely associated with BVB. Sports director Sebastian Kehl publicly downplays the rumors.
Borussia Dortmund is already eleven points behind leaders Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga. In the DFB Cup, the Black and Yellows suffered a bitter round of 16 exit against VfB Stuttgart. BVB is currently on target only in the Champions League.
There is inevitably speculation in Westphalia about possible new winter arrivals. Jadon Sancho (Manchester United) and Serhou Guirassy (VfB Stuttgart) are at the center of rumors these days. Dortmund’s sports director Sebastian Kehl has now taken a stand in the run-up to the Champions League duel with PSG.
“At the moment there are no talks at all. Neither with the club nor with the player. That really amused me,” the manager responded to “DAZN” on the latest reports that the German runner-up is said to be interested in Guirassy: “But we live with it, it’s all good.”
BVB transfers not excluded
But it’s not just the Stuttgart striker who is currently being traded by Borussia. “Bild” recently brought up a swap deal between Manchester United and BVB. According to the thought game, Jadon Sancho and Donyell Malen could change their respective employers
“At the moment there is no exchange deal discussed or any interest in any player,” said Kehl in this regard. Sancho played for Dortmund from 2017 to 2021. The Englishman is now left out of the Red Devils.
However, winter newcomers are not out of the question at BVB. For his part, Kehl also referred to the injury to full-back Julian Ryerson. “We will have to take a close look at what opportunities there are on the market,” said the 43-year-old: “As always, we will deal with the topics very intensively and will not allow ourselves to be carried away.”
