Assist king Ryerson to leave BVB? This could be his next destination

Julian Ryerson is currently the talk of the town. The 28-year-old full-back from Borussia Dortmund impresses with his set pieces and crosses. Already, eleven of his assists have led to goals in the Bundesliga. It’s hardly surprising that clubs from abroad have also taken notice.

Despite all the interest from the Premier League, BVB can remain relaxed. The contract with the 39-time Norwegian international runs until 2028. Manchester United and Newcastle United are considered interested parties. Liverpool FC is also said to be among the clubs keeping an eye on Ryerson. According to Sportsboom, the Bundesliga runner-up would only be willing to enter negotiations for an offer of at least 35 million euros.

But does the defensive all-rounder, who is currently filling in at center-back due to the team’s injury crisis, even want to move to England? According to information from Absolut Fussball, Serie A is considered “the more realistic and possibly more enticing” option for Ryerson.

World Cup Stage

Whether the Norwegian, who will have the chance to showcase himself at the World Cup in Canada, Mexico, and the USA (June 11 to July 19, 2026) this summer, will actually leave Dortmund is far from certain. Reportedly, he feels extremely comfortable at BVB, it is said.

By the end of his contract with the Westphalians, Ryerson will be 30 years old. The likelihood that his next contract would be the last lucrative one of his professional career is high. The defender will therefore carefully consider his next steps—especially if the wealthy clubs from the Premier League get serious. Nowhere else can players earn as much as in England’s top league.

With a reported annual salary of five million euros, Ryerson is earning good money in Dortmund. But it would hardly be surprising if his salary were to triple with a move to the Premier League, as Sportsboom suspects.
