Borussia Dortmund and Heidenheim discuss potential Diant Ramaj loan | OneFootball

Florian Plettenberg reports that FC Heidenheim and Borussia Dortmund are discussing a loan deal for goalkeeping prospect Diant Ramaj. The 23-year-old – recently returned from a loan stint with FC Copenhagen – has made it cleat that he does not wish to warm the BVB bench in the coming Bundesliga campaign. Ramaj nevertheless has little playing prospects this year behind Dortmund number-one Gregor Kobel.

Heidenheim evidently feel comfortable giving the former Germany U20 international a chance in the German top flight. Veteran FCH keeper Kevin Müller enjoys solid status with his longtime club and even recently signed a contract extension, yet could be willing to take a back-seat at the age of 34. Plettenberg claims that Heidenheim have made up their mind. Completion of the deal hinges on Dortmund.

It remains common knowledge that Dortmund wish to loan out their highly enthusiastic prospect to a club in one of Europe’s top five leagues. Die Schwarzgelben signed the former Eintracht Frankfurt professional with the clear aim of eventually grooming him for the number-one slot.

Ramaj actually worked in the Heidenheim academy from 2018 onwards and made FCH head coach Frank Schmidt’s matchday squad on three occasions before transferring to Eintracht in the summer of 2021. Ramaj ultimately made his professional debut with the SGE.
