BVB scouts at KSC: Louey Ben Farhat in the spotlight | OneFootball

In recent days, Armando González from Deportivo Guadalajara, a Mexican national striker, has been linked with Borussia Dortmund. He could become a topic of interest in the summer if the current strikers Serhou Guirassy and Fabio Silva potentially become candidates for a transfer. However, the 22-year-old González is likely not the only forward BVB has its eyes on. Borussia is also looking at the 2nd Bundesliga, among other places.

According to a report by the Badische Neueste Nachrichten (BNN), BVB scouts were eyewitnesses to the match between Karlsruher SC and Dynamo Dresden last Sunday, where the hosts managed to salvage a 3:3 draw after being down 1:3.

Significantly involved in the comeback was Louey Ben Farhat, who scored a remarkable goal to make it 2:3. Despite only eleven appearances this season due to injury, he has already scored five goals and provided two assists. The 19-year-old, recently nominated for the Tunisian national team and hopeful for the 2026 World Cup, has stood out at KSC in recent weeks and has caught the attention of more than just BVB.

Other Bundesliga and international clubs with scouts on site

As confirmed by Karlsruhe's sporting director Timon Pauls to the BNN, besides BVB, scouts from FC Bayern Munich, Eintracht Frankfurt, and Bayer Leverkusen were also present from the Bundesliga. Additionally, clubs from Italy and France, including Atalanta Bergamo, Como 1907, Olympique Lyon, and OGC Nice, had scouts at the Wildparkstadion.

In Karlsruhe, it is understood that it will be difficult to keep Ben Farhat beyond this season despite a contract running until 2029. According to the BNN, the club is open to discussions but is aiming for a transfer fee in the range of ten to twelve million euros.

Such an investment would naturally carry risks for BVB, but given Ben Farhat's potential, it also offers plenty of opportunities.
