Jude Bellingham, Gio Reyna, and the players most likely to leave Borussia Dortmund this summer

After a promising start to 2023, everything has fallen apart for Borussia Dortmund. The German outfit were knocked out of the Champions League by a poor Chelsea side, beaten in the DFB-Pokal quarter-final by RB Leipzig, and handed a heavy defeat by Bayern Munich that seems to have them rattled in the title race.

And although they are only two points behind the struggling Bavarians in the Bundesliga, there is little about Dortmund's play to suggest that they might make up the ground in the final weeks of the campaign.

That's a problem, especially since Dortmund had an uncharacteristically big summer, spending north of €100 million (£88m/$110m) on new transfers, while also bringing in Niklas Sule on a free from Bayern.

Still, for all of the new faces, similar problems have remained. Namely, Dortmund have been plagued by a lack of consistency and an inability to perform in big games.

It could all point to a summer clear-out, with a number of veterans approaching the end of their contracts, as well as some awkward fits that could bring in funds to refresh the squad again.
