Talks scheduled: will Kabar stay at BVB? | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund or not? Almugera Kabar’s future is at stake. That is why those in charge at BVB are now looking to hold talks with the 19-year-old defensive talent.

Kabar is still under contract with the Black and Yellows until 2028. This season, however, the left-back has played almost exclusively for the Ruhr club’s U23 side. Only last weekend, he made his Bundesliga season debut in the 0-1 home defeat against Bayer Leverkusen. It was the fifth senior appearance for the Bremen-born player, who has been at the club since 2019.

Most recently, Kabar has been playing regularly in the Regionalliga. There, the 2023 U17 world and European champion showed unexpected goalscoring qualities. His tally after 16 matches for the reserve team already stands at six goals.

However, the youngster is unlikely to see his sporting future in the fourth tier. Talks with new sporting director Nils-Ole Book (40) are expected to provide “clarity and transparency,” according to Ruhr Nachrichten.

Almost at HSV

As early as last winter, Kabar was on the verge of leaving Dortmund. The left-footer already seemed all but certain to join Hamburger SV. However, concerns during the mandatory medical check caused the deal to collapse at the last minute. The Hanseatic club is still monitoring the German-Libyan’s development, though. As things stand, a resumption of talks is not planned.

When Kabar signed his first professional contract with BVB in 2025, then sporting director Sebastian Kehl (46) said: “We are delighted that we can continue on this path together with Almugera. He is a local boy with great potential who has already left his mark on the academy in the past. He brings a lot to the table physically, football-wise and in terms of character, and together we will work on advancing his development step by step.”

Whether that perspective is still enough for Kabar will become clear in the coming weeks and months.
