Jérémy Jacquet on the radar – do BVB have an outside chance? | OneFootball

At Borussia Dortmund, there is hope for a long-term contract extension with Nico Schlotterbeck. However, since Niklas Süle is almost certain to leave the club in the summer and a continued commitment to Aarón Anselmino, who is on loan from FC Chelsea, is at least very questionable, a gap is emerging in the central defense.

If Emre Can, as generally expected, extends his contract until 2028, the urgency for action wouldn't be as great. Nevertheless, Dortmund's management is surely keeping an eye on the market and has several potential candidates for the defense center on their list.

Talks with FC Chelsea are underway

According to a report by Sky, Jérémy Jacquet is among those on the list, having shown remarkable development at Stade Rennes last year and is understandably being courted by several major clubs. However, BVB is only in an outsider role in this regard. The same likely applies to FC Bayern Munich, while among several interested Premier League clubs, FC Chelsea has emerged as the favorite.

According to Sky, Chelsea is already in concrete talks with Stade Rennes about a transfer as early as winter. A transfer fee of 55 to 60 million euros is being discussed, which would be difficult for BVB to manage, unlike the Blues and the financially strong competition from England.
