Jamie Gitten will probably leave Borussia Dortmund. Economically, the change is good business for the Bundesliga club, it is a loss of loss, especially since the Englishman is still very young.
Discover early, oblige it early, cheap or at least relatively cheap, and then sell for a lot of money: Borussia Dortmund has gone a little off from this plan as an essential part of the business model in recent years. But it still comes into play, as a transfer shows that should take place in the coming days.
Jamie Gitten is about to switch to Chelsea FC, and the rumored transfer fee is 65 million euros. It could even even rise.
About 65 million euros profit
The BVB only paid an apprenticeship compensation in a six -digit amount when he brought the Englishman to Germany in 2020.
The football company from Westphalia, listed on the stock exchange, is also full of the pockets with the upcoming transfer, after the qualification for the Champions League has still succeeded and there are already more than 30 million euros in entry fees and premiums at the currently running club World Cup.
Sporty loss
But Gittens is also a loss, because BVB loses an extremely fast, tricky wing striker, which scored 17 goals in 76 Bundesliga games and gave 14 templates. In the Champions League, too, the numbers with five goals and five templates with 23 missions are noteworthy, especially if the age of Gitten is observed: it will only be 21 years old in August.

The impression was increasingly clear: he wants to go
Jamie Gittins recently no longer played a major role at BVB. Above all, this should have been due to the fact that he looked as if he had no desire to play a major role.
The impression that he wants to go back to his homeland was more and more created in the course of the year. When Gittens left the training area frustrated a few weeks ago after the BVB responsible had told him that they rejected an offer from Chelsea over more than 50 million, so it had to be clear to everyone.
Best business with English
Borussia Dortmund and his commitments from England, that has been a model and success model – Jadon Sancho, Jew Bellingham, Jamie Gitties in recent years. Carney Chukwuemeka, borrowed from FC Chelsea, does not fit in this series.
The loan player of Chelsea will most likely leave BVB after the club World Cup. For this, the Dortmunders got a new Englishman again, with a very famous name: Jobe Bellingham, the brother of Jew, for whom the Dortmund had to pay much more than one training allowance to the AFC Sunderland, namely just around 35 million euros.
That was about ten million more than his brother, who then brought in more than 100 million euros when he moved on to Real Madrid in 2024.
Gitten should not play for Chelsea at club World Cup
The Spanish Nobel Club could be an opponent of Borussia Dortmund at the club World Cup, just like Chelsea FC, who has even reached the quarter-finals. BVB still wants to do that. He meets the Mexican club CF MONTERREY at 3 a.m. on Wednesday (02.07.2025) at 3 a.m.
The regulations of the bloated competition stipulate that a player can only appear for a club at the tournament in the USA. The club World Cup should be over for Gitten.
Kehl has “different idea” than Sancho
Even before the transfer is officially announced, the question of who should replace it at BVB is explained. The name Jadon Sancho was also brought into play. Sports director Sebastian Kehl, however, said: “We have other ideas.”
