BVB has to react 3 times to Bayern
Borussia Dortmund coach Edin Terzic has reacted calmly to the latest transfer speculation about Jude Bellingham. “Now the news came from Spain. The weeks before that she came from England. Once she even came from France,” the BVB coach commented on the media reports of the past few days, according to which the 19-year-old English international is about to move to Real Madrid.

On Friday, Terzic referred to experiences from previous years with similar noise at the end of the season, when other courted Dortmund professionals made headlines: “Last year it was Erling Haaland, before that it was Jadon Sancho. These are issues that don’t fit either in our dressing room or in the trainer’s office.”
From Philipp to Dembélé: BVB’s most expensive purchases
For Sancho, BVB received 85 million euros from Manchester United in 2021, Haaland switched to Manchester City for 60 million euros before the season. Bellingham is likely to exceed both sums with a change in the summer and become the second Dortmund sale in the three-digit million range after Ousmane Dembélé (2017 for 140 million euros to FC Barcelona).
According to Terzic, the rumors do not have a negative impact on Bellingham’s performance: “Jude comes here every day and gives everything to become German champion in the end. I haven’t even heard from him, I’m dealing with another club.”
Bochum game forgotten for BVB: “There is no time to quarrel too long”
In the title race Dortmund has to face VfL Wolfsburg on Sunday at 5:30 p.m. The two lost points from last week’s 1-1 draw in Bochum must then be forgotten, emphasizes Terzic: “There is no time to quarrel for too long. It’s about showing that nothing can stop us. We still have four games to make sure we don’t have to worry about this evening in Bochum.”
In the next three of the four remaining games of the season, BVB will only intervene after Munich and have to react to the result of their rivals, who have been one point better so far.” The only thing we can influence are our own games. Despite all the setbacks, we are still within reach of reaching our goal,” commented Terzic. The 40-year-old is hoping for a Bundesliga final with suspense until the final day of the game on May 27: “It’s about keeping up the pressure. That’s only possible if we get three points.”

As in Bochum, BVB will probably have to do without Nico Schlotterbeck again. Although the German national defender is back in training after a muscle injury, he should not be fully resilient yet. A decision on its use should be made shortly. The chances are better for full-back Raphaël Guerreiro, who recently had to step down after a blow to the calf.
