Deal agreed – Kauã Prates joining BVB this summer | OneFootball

Even after the sudden departure of Aarón Anselmino, whom Chelsea FC has prematurely recalled to London via a clause, Borussia Dortmund is not planning to be active in the winter transfer market, which remains open until next Monday. However, BVB seems to be on the verge of securing their first summer transfer.

After lengthy negotiations, BVB and Cruzeiro Belo Horizonte have agreed on the transfer of Kauã Prates, according to Sky reporter Florian Plettenberg. The 17-year-old left-back is set to join Dortmund for around twelve million euros, including bonus payments, but only after his 18th birthday in the summer.

Contract planned until 2031

While there are still details to be finalized with Kauã Prates, who is expected to sign a long-term contract with BVB until 2031, the transfer is not expected to fall through. It is anticipated that an official announcement of the completion will be made soon.

Although the Brazilian U17 national player will certainly need some time to acclimate and settle in, the transfer fee alone indicates how highly Dortmund's management regards Kauã Prates.

For this reason, another left-back talent, Almugera Kabar, has no future at BVB. The German U17 World Champion of 2023 reportedly has several inquiries from the Bundesliga and the 2nd division and is likely to leave Dortmund this winter.
