With Samuele Inacio and new signing Justin Lerma, Borussia Dortmund have new sources of hope in attack, players who are believed to have a very good future role and the potential to develop to the highest international level. Not too long ago, the same was also said about Cole Campbell, who has now been transferred to SV Elversberg. But not without a back door.
Even around the finalization of the move to the Bundesliga-promoted side, there was talk of a buy-back clause, which Sport Bild has now confirmed, including details. According to the report, BVB can bring Campbell back in the next two summer transfer windows — in 2027 and 2028 — for a fixed fee of twelve million euros, which would be double the amount of the transfer fee now received from Elversberg.
If BVB do not exercise the option by the summer of 2028 at the latest, the clause will expire and they will no longer have any right to re-sign him.
For BVB, the agreement with Elversberg is quite comfortable, as Dortmund’s decision-makers can wait for two years and see whether Campbell manages to fulfill the potential he showed at youth level in senior football.

If Campbell makes his breakthrough in Elversberg, BVB can move for him again for a comparatively low fee and bring back a more developed player who would still be young at that point. If Campbell does not make the step up to the next level, Borussia have already secured a respectable transfer fee.
