BVB turned down talks over Beier transfer – Fabio Silva a factor too | OneFootball

Initially overlooked by national coach Julian Nagelsmann, but then called up as a replacement for the injured Niclas Füllkrug, Maximilian Beier used his substitute appearance in the international match against Northern Ireland for self-promotion and can expect good chances of being included in the DFB selection in October. Meanwhile, Beier's future at club level remains with Borussia Dortmund for the time being.

In the last days of the summer transfer period, which ended on 1 September, Beier's stay in Dortmund was no longer certain. The reason for this was the interest of FC Brentford, who were reportedly willing to pay a transfer fee of up to 70 million euros.

BVB not ready to negotiate

As the "Ruhr Nachrichten" now report, BVB did not actually deal with an offer from the Premier League during the final transfer rush. This was also because it became clear during the medical check that Fabio Silva, signed from Wolverhampton Wanderers, would not be an option for the time being and the squad in attack would have been very thin in September and October if Beier had been sold.

Because BVB put a stop to a transfer right away, there were no negotiations with Brentford. The obviously highly interested and financially strong Englishmen then loaned Reiss Nelson from Arsenal on deadline day, but could definitely make a new attempt in winter. What Dortmund would think about this is open - and could depend not only on Beier's performances in the coming weeks, but also on how Fabio Silva performs.
