BVB: Akanji “does not want to extend” the contract – action needs to be taken in the goalkeeper position

Moukoko should stay at BVB

With the two German national players Niklas Süle (26) and Nico Schlotterbeck (22), Borussia Dortmund has already strengthened itself twice in the central defender position. In return, Manuel Akanji could leave BVB this summer. The upcoming sports director Sebastian Kehl confirmed the “WAZ“that the 26-year-old is not interested in putting his signature on a new working paper for the black and yellow.

“Manuel has a contract until 2023, doesn’t want to extend it and there’s nothing new at the moment,” said Kehl. “We are in close contact with him and his agent and are waiting to see what happens now.” With a market value of 30 million euros, Akanji is currently the fifth most valuable professional in the squad.

In order to achieve a fee for the 39-time Swiss national player, Dortmund would have to sell the right-footer around four and a half years after his EUR 21.5 million move from FC Basel in the coming transfer period. Manchester United are the favorites to be signed and are said to lure Akanji with an annual salary of 15 million euros. But Juventus Turin should now show increased interest after captain Giorgio Chiellini (37) announced his departure after 17 years.

Kehl makes it clear: BVB wants to extend the contract with top talent Moukoko

On the other hand, top talent Youssoufa Moukoko should be kept. The 17-year-old, who became the match winner against Hertha BSC last Saturday, recently caused a stir after posting a story via social media that suggested a possible farewell.

Kehl reacted and rebuked the youngster. “Youssoufa’s messages were worded in a naive way. He apparently wanted to thank his outgoing colleagues. But there is no new status for him: He has a contract until 2023 and we would like to extend it with him.

However, it is questionable whether Moukoko, who became the youngest Bundesliga professional in history in November 2020, thinks similarly. Due to injury, the left-footer only played 482 minutes in the past season, spread over 24 appearances. The “image” had recently speculated that BVB should open the door for a change. However, the Dortmunders would only agree to a sale with a buyback option.

Farewell to Bürki & Hitz: BVB will “do something else in the goalkeeper position”

BVB said goodbye to the two goalkeepers Roman Bürki (31) and Marwin Hitz (34) on Saturday, who will definitely leave Westphalia. Bürki is drawn to St. Louis CITY in the United States, the new employer of his Swiss compatriot Hitz has not yet been decided. According to Transfermarkt information, FC Basel wants to bring the goalkeeper back home. The “kicker” recently linked Hitz to a return to FC Augsburg, for whom he played 157 games – more than for any other club. In addition, the reported transfer Marcel Lotka (20) is not certain, since Hertha BSC drew a corresponding clause, which should now result in legal consequences.

Kehl announced: “We will do something in the goalkeeper position. Marwin’s farewell came at very short notice in the last few days. He asked us to terminate the contract because he has good sporting prospects and a long-term contract. He wants to play again, so we agreed.” The keeper’s working paper was originally valid until 2023.
