In Borussia Dortmund’s U19s there are many talents hoping for a breakthrough with the professionals in the Bundesliga. A BVB jewel has now aroused the interest of two top Italian clubs.
Like the portal”tuttumercatoweb.com” reported that Juventus Turin and AC Milan put out feelers for 17-year-old Vasco Walz.
The central midfielder has played for Borussia Dortmund since 2019. So far he has been used in the U17 and U19 of the black and yellow. He played two games for the German U17 national team.
The fact that Walz has both German and Italian citizenship makes the youngster particularly interesting for Serie A clubs, as he would not fall into the foreigner contingent. In addition, Walz is only contractually bound to BVB until 2023.
