Borussia Dortmund have officially confirmed their interest in re-signing Jadon Sancho as a free agent when his Manchester United contract expires this June. The Bundesliga giants are exploring a third stint for the 26-year-old winger, though any potential homecoming would require the attacker to accept a substantial reduction in his current salary.
Despite what has been an outstanding season so far, planning at FC Bayern for the coming campaign is already in full swing, with the club’s hierarchy determined to maintain its domestic dominance and enhance its European credentials. Two specific areas of concern are set to be addressed.
First, the club is exploring options to reinforce the defence, where injuries and age have raised questions about long-term solidity. A young, ball-playing centre-back who can slot into the team’s high-line strategy is reported to be a priority, with scouts monitoring several candidates across Europe. The aim is to provide a long-term partner for Niklas Süle and ease the burden on the experienced pair of Jérôme Boateng and David Alaba.
Second, Bayern’s midfield requires fresh legs. With Thiago’s future uncertain and Joshua Kimmich occasionally overloaded, the club is weighing up creative, box-to-box profiles who can drive play from deep and free up Thomas Müller to roam in his preferred No.10 role. A d
Luis Diaz has expressed his absolute conviction in his decision to swap Liverpool for Bayern Munich last summer following a match-winning performance at the Santiago Bernabeu. The Colombian forward opened the scoring as the Bundesliga leaders secured a 2-1 first-leg advantage over Real Madrid in their Champions League quarter-final tie, taking his remarkable season tally to 41 goal involvements.
Vincent Kompany hailed the character of Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior after his Bayern Munich side secured a vital 2-1 Champions League victory at the Santiago Bernabeu. The Belgian manager insisted that protecting unique talents like the Brazilian forward remains more important than any result, especially following recent alleged racial abuse aimed at the Madrid star.
Kaua Prates is set to join BVB in the summer – but he hasn’t featured at all for his current club since the transfer was announced. News and rumours about Borussia Dortmund.
Bayern Munich won the first leg at Real Madrid – but a penalty just before the final whistle could have made the scoreline even higher. News and rumours about FCB.
Real Madrid are reportedly preparing a double raid on Bundesliga side Stuttgart as the club look to finally address the creative void left by Toni Kroos. The Spanish giants are weighing up a move for former academy star Chema Andres alongside German standout Angelo Stiller to bolster their options.
Borussia Dortmund are preparing for a significant shake-up in their defensive ranks as the club braces for the potential departure of Nico Schlotterbeck. With contract negotiations stalling and fellow centre-back Niklas Sule also expected to leave, the Black and Yellows are scouring the market for elite reinforcements.
Under Vincent Kompany, a host of homegrown players have been promoted to the first team this season. While this was something of a rarity in the recent past, it has cost FC Bayern Munich a number of established top players of today. A misguided decision in the transfer market even drove away a current DFB star.
Liverpool icon Steven Gerrard has identified Bayern Munich star Michael Olise as the ideal "like-for-like" successor to Mohamed Salah ahead of the Egyptian's summer departure. The 33-year-old forward recently confirmed he will end his legendary nine-year stint at Anfield, leaving the Reds’ recruitment team with a monumental task to fill the void on the right wing.

Borussia Dortmund’s next match is against Bayer Leverkusen. Just over 15 years ago, a wild incident occurred within the BVB camp in the run-up to this fixture. Right at the heart of it all: Kevin Großkreutz.
Bayern Munich are facing a race against time to have Harry Kane leading the line for their monumental Champions League quarter-final first leg against Real Madrid. The England captain has been struggling with an ankle issue that kept him out of domestic action at the weekend, leaving fans and coaching staff anxious ahead of the trip to the Santiago Bernabeu.
Because of Alex Manninger, Jürgen Klopp suffered a bitter defeat in early 2015. He recalled this in Liverpool when he was still looking for an experienced goalkeeper.
Despite extending his contract, the defensive stalwart reportedly wants to keep his options open regarding a potential departure from BVB after this summer’s World Cup.
If recent reports are to be believed, Liverpool have identified Michael Olise as the ideal replacement for the outgoing Mohamed Salah. However, wanting to sign the France forward and actually managing to do so are two very different things altogether. Bayern's bid to sign Florian Wirtz last summer may have been blown out of the water by Liverpool - but they have absolutely no intention of selling Olise to the Reds at the end of the current campaign.
