Should BVB be worried? Two top clubs keen on Svensson | OneFootball

After strong performances at BVB, Daniel Svensson has played his way onto the radar of Europe’s top clubs. No fewer than two heavyweights are reportedly showing concrete interest in the versatile defender.

Borussia Dortmund could face an unpleasant squad decision in the upcoming transfer window. In Daniel Svensson, one of their key players has attracted the attention of Europe’s elite — above all Arsenal and AC Milan.

The Swedish international has impressed this season בעיקר through his flexibility. Whether at left-back or in central defense, Svensson can be deployed in multiple roles, and that is exactly what makes him so attractive to top clubs. According to transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, Arsenal in particular rate him highly: “He is someone they will try to sign.”

In London, they reportedly value his tactical versatility above all. Svensson could operate there not only as a traditional left-back, but also in central defense. This adaptability fits perfectly with the profile sought by coach Mikel Arteta, who is known to place great importance on flexible defenders.

But his development is also being closely monitored in Italy. Milan have allegedly been tracking the Dortmund player for some time, though they have not yet made a final decision. According to Di Marzio, the reason is their faith in their own talent, Davide Bartesaghi, on the left side. Nevertheless, Svensson remains an option should their squad planning change.

Svensson in focus: Arsenal and Milan chase BVB star

From a sporting perspective, BVB would find it difficult to compensate for his departure. Svensson has already made 41 appearances this season, contributing four goals and two assists. His consistently strong performances are also reflected in his market value, which has now risen to around €22 million.

For Dortmund, however, a transfer could still make financial sense. Svensson was only signed permanently last summer after a loan spell for around €6.5 million. According to media reports, though, those in charge would only be willing to talk if an offer of around €30 million were on the table.

Whether any of the interested clubs will make a serious move remains to be seen. What is clear, however, is that Svensson has played his way onto the shortlist of Europe’s top clubs with his performances — and those in charge at BVB are likely to be monitoring the situation closely.
