"Why should he extend?" – Discussion about Bayern-flirt Schlotterbeck

Nico Schlotterbeck is considered a transfer candidate at FC Bayern. At BVB, the national player's contract runs until 2027. For Dortmund, the summer of 2026 would be the last opportunity to achieve a high transfer fee. An extension currently does not seem in sight – and that is precisely what's causing discussions.

Former professional Steffen Freund explained on Sky90: "Now he's checking the market. I'm quite sure that he won't extend with Borussia Dortmund relatively quickly now. And that, in my view, increases the likelihood that he will leave."

Dietmar Hamann also believes in an imminent departure: "Schlotterbeck can choose his club next summer. I don't see any reason why he should extend. The path will probably lead elsewhere next summer – that's what I assume."

Thomas Helmer agreed with his colleagues and brought other names into play: "Whether it's Bayern, the Premier League, Barcelona, or Real Madrid, who knows. Why should he extend? No. The perspective in Dortmund is not like at other clubs."
