What next for Ramaj? BVB informs goalkeeper of decision | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund have apparently made a decision about Diant Ramaj’s future. The goalkeeper was most recently on loan at 1. FC Heidenheim.

The decision has apparently been made: Diant Ramaj no longer has a future at Borussia Dortmund. As reported by Ruhr Nachrichten, BVB officials have already informed the goalkeeper that he does not feature in the club’s plans for next season. Both sides are now looking for a suitable solution for the summer.

Ramaj had only joined Dortmund in February 2025 from Ajax Amsterdam for around five million euros. At the time, the Black and Yellows signed the goalkeeper as a possible successor to Gregor Kobel. However, those in charge have apparently since lost confidence that Ramaj can become BVB’s number one in the long term.

Kobel, whose contract runs until 2028, is expected to remain Dortmund’s first-choice goalkeeper in the coming years. Immediately after signing, Ramaj was loaned out to FC Copenhagen. There, the German-Kosovar impressed with strong performances, won the Danish league title and the cup, and gained important match practice.

Decision made: BVB planning without Diant Ramaj

The subsequent loan spell at 1. FC Heidenheim, however, was far more disappointing. Although the goalkeeper repeatedly showed glimpses of his quality, he lost his place in the starting lineup during the closing stages of the season and was unable to make a lasting impression on BVB’s decision-makers. Ramaj now faces an uncertain future. According to Ruhr Nachrichten, both another loan move and a permanent transfer are possible.

The problem for Dortmund: the 24-year-old is still under a long-term contract until 2029, meaning a transfer is likely to happen only if a suitable offer arrives. The situation is particularly notable because Ramaj could leave the club without ever having made a competitive appearance for the first team. After arriving in Dortmund, he was immediately sent out on loan, so he has yet to play for the Black and Yellows.

With BVB also planning for next season with Kobel, Alexander Meyer and Patrick Drewes, there appears to be no room left for Ramaj in the squad. Both sides are therefore pushing for a swift solution so that the goalkeeper can continue his career elsewhere.
