Sky Germany understands that Borussia Dortmund and Como FC are close to finalizing a deal for Yan Couto.

The Bundesliga runner-up will receive around €3million for Couto’s year-long loan move to the club from Lombardy in Italy.

Patrick Berger, a journalist employed by the pay-TV channel, has sources that suggests the deal includes a €22million option to buy. 

Meanwhile, Como will also cover the Brazilian's full salary for the season, costing the Serie A side around €5million per year. 

The right-sided wing-back flew to Italy this morning to complete his medical and is expected sign the contract shortly.
