Bundesliga soccer team Borussia Dortmund is constantly working on discovering possible new top talents at home and abroad. According to a recent media report, BVB could have once again struck gold in Belgium and France.
As a “Sky” report says, the reigning runner-up has two young professionals on the list, both of whom are considered extremely talented.
On the one hand there is Bilal El Khannouss from the Belgian first division club KRC Genk. According to the TV station, the 19-year-old midfielder has made his way into the BVB scouts’ notebooks with his strong performances in the Belgian first division.
El Khannouss has already made an impressive 39 competitive appearances for Genk this season, scoring three goals. So far there is said to be nothing concrete regarding a possible summer transfer between Dortmund and Genk. But the teenager continues to be closely watched by the Black and Yellows.
In addition to BVB, Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig are also said to have already included the personnel in their considerations.
BVB also close to the French jewel?
On the other hand, according to the “Sky” report, the top French talent Desire Doue has also caught the attention of Borussia Dortmund. Doue is also a midfielder and has already played 48 games in the French Ligue 1 for Stade Rennes as an 18-year-old.
The youngster has been playing for France’s U21 national team since last year and is considered one of the greatest talents of his 2005 class in his home country.
Doue is contractually bound to Stade Rennes until 2026, with the club he is currently in eighth place in Ligue 1. In addition to BVB, other big names from the top European leagues are also said to have long since joined him.
