Return to former club? Man City interested in Felix Nmecha | OneFootball

Immediately after last week's elimination at Atalanta Bergamo in the play-offs for the Champions League round of 16, speculation began circulating that Borussia Dortmund, due to the loss of revenue in the tens of millions, would have no choice but to sell at least one key player this summer. In this context, Felix Nmecha is repeatedly mentioned, as he has a market especially in the Premier League—and apparently is also on the radar of his former club.

According to information from Sky, Manchester City has joined the ranks of interested parties for Nmecha, which reportedly also includes Chelsea FC, Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur.

For the midfielder, Man City is certainly no ordinary club, but rather the club where Nmecha received an excellent education from 2008 until his move to VfL Wolfsburg in the summer of 2021. Now, the Skyblues and their coach Pep Guardiola are said to have had the 25-year-old in their sights for some time and have already made contact with Nmecha's new agents.

BVB wants to extend with Nmecha long-term

BVB is, of course, aware of the interest that Nmecha is already attracting elsewhere, as well as the risk that the six-time senior international could put himself even more in the spotlight at the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Mexico, and Canada this summer.

Dortmund’s management, led by sporting director Sebastian Kehl, has already met with The Talent Table, the agency now representing Nmecha, for an initial exchange and made it clear that the club wishes to extend his contract, currently running until June 30, 2028, on a long-term basis. In this context, BVB is also prepared to increase Nmecha’s current salary, which is around five million euros per year.
