All after Nmecha: another English club eyes BVB star | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund apparently has to brace itself for another interested party in Felix Nmecha. Another Premier League club is said to have set its sights on the BVB star.

Felix Nmecha’s strong performances at the World Cup continue to generate major interest on the transfer market. After several top European clubs were recently linked with the Borussia Dortmund midfielder, Newcastle United now also seem ready to seriously enter the race for him.

As Sky Sports reports, the Magpies’ decision-makers view the 25-year-old as a possible successor to Bruno Guimarães. The Brazilian international is being heavily pursued by Arsenal. Newcastle are said to have already rejected an initial offer from the London club. If Arsenal improve their bid over the course of the summer and Guimarães does indeed leave, Nmecha could be at the top of the English club’s wishlist.

According to the report, Newcastle coach Eddie Howe in particular is a major supporter of the transfer. However, signing him would be anything but cheap. According to information from BILD, Borussia Dortmund would only be willing to let the Germany international leave this summer for a transfer fee of around €120 million.

Newcastle also want to sign BVB star Felix Nmecha

Given his development, it is hardly surprising that numerous top clubs are monitoring Nmecha. Besides Newcastle, Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Real Madrid and also Bayern Munich have recently been linked with the BVB player, among others. Manchester United in particular are said to have stepped up their efforts recently.

A move to the German record champions, however, is considered unlikely. According to Sky, Bayern are not planning to invest a transfer fee of that magnitude in a central midfielder, as major spending is already earmarked for other transfer targets.

The Germany international’s contract in Dortmund still runs until 2030. There is no release clause this summer. From 2027 onwards, however, Nmecha is reportedly expected to be able to leave the club for a fixed fee of €80 million, and a year later that figure would even drop to €70 million. Until then, Borussia Dortmund remain in a very comfortable position in any potential negotiations.
