Done deal: BVB tie down starlet Reggiani on a long-term contract | OneFootball

After his strong breakthrough with the professionals, Luca Reggiani has committed to Borussia Dortmund for the long term. BVB is thus sending a clear signal for the future with young talents.

Borussia Dortmund is further advancing its transformation and is specifically focusing on young talents: Center-back Luca Reggiani has signed his first professional contract with BVB and committed to the club for the long term.

The Italian crowns a remarkable development that has taken him from the youth team to the professional squad in a short time. Just a few weeks ago, the U19 national player made his debut, and the 18-year-old has already made several appearances in the Bundesliga – and even scored his first goal. In the 2-0 victory against FC Augsburg, Reggiani scored with a header, creating emotional scenes.

At BVB, the defensive talent is seen as an important building block for the future. Sporting Director Lars Ricken emphasizes the joint path: “We were totally convinced of Luca's abilities when we inspired him to join Borussia Dortmund about two years ago. Since then, we have consistently worked with him and led Luca from our U17 through our U19 to the professionals.”

Reggiani himself is emotional and motivated after signing his contract: “I am very, very happy. When I came to BVB two years ago, it was my dream to play in Signal Iduna Park.”

The extension is also seen as a signal in the context of planned squad changes. Dortmund is increasingly focusing on young, developable players – and Reggiani is expected to play a central role in this. With his rapid rise and first impressive performances in the professional field, he has already hinted at the potential he possesses.
