Another new face for BVB's attack? – Rumours over Angelo Gabriel | OneFootball

After the failed attempt to sign Said El Mala (1. FC Köln), Borussia Dortmund reacted quickly and brought in Giannis Konstantelias (PAOK Thessaloniki), another attacking player who could form a new Greek duo with Konstantinos Karetsas (KRC Genk), who had already been signed earlier. Further attacking transfers are probably no longer planned by BVB, but cannot be completely ruled out at the moment.

While Fabio Silva and Serhou Guirassy continue to be linked with possible moves and it is at least conceivable that a lucrative offer could still arrive for one of the two center-forwards before the transfer deadline on September 1, BVB are reportedly still keeping an eye on Fisnik Asllani (TSG Hoffenheim) after his move to RB Leipzig fell through.

And according to South American sports journalist Eduardo Burgos, BVB are also said to be interested in Angelo Gabriel, who has been playing for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League for the past two years. Al-Nassr are reportedly willing to let the 21-year-old Brazilian leave for a fee in the region of €30 million, although coach Ange Postecoglou would be reluctant to lose the attacker.

By Cristiano Ronaldo’s side for two years

Angelo joined Chelsea from Santos FC in the summer of 2023 for around €15 million, but was immediately loaned to Racing Strasbourg and, after a mixed year in Ligue 1, sold to Al-Nassr for €23 million. Playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, the left-footed attacker, who is mostly used on the right wing, has recorded eleven goals and 22 assists in 79 competitive appearances.

Despite those decent numbers in a league that admittedly does not operate at the highest level, a concrete move by BVB is hard to imagine. It is possible that Angelo would have been an alternative to Konstantelias, but after the signing of the Greek, there is no real increased need in that area anymore.
