Official: Kevin Mutove and Mario Pejazic join BVB U23 | OneFootball

With Jordi Paulina (Fortuna Düsseldorf), Antonio Foti (SC Verl), Ben Hüning (Rot-Weiss Essen), David Lelle (Aris Limassol), and Marcel Johnen (Sportfreunde Siegen), Borussia Dortmund II has recorded five departures in the current winter transfer period. However, there are now also three new external signings, following the announcement of a double transfer on Friday.

After Leroy Kwadwo, who was brought in from half a year of being without a club and signed with a contract until the end of the season, Kevin Mutove and Mario Pejazic are now also part of coach Daniel Rios's squad.

Mutove last season still in the Bayernliga

The 21-year-old left-back Pejazic had terminated his contract with the Slovakian first division club MFK Košice on December 31 and had been training with the BVB U23 since the beginning of January. The Austrian, who was trained at the Red Bull Salzburg Academy, initially signed a contract like Kwadwo until June 30, 2026.

The same-aged offensive player Mutove has committed to BVB for two years longer, having been signed from VfB Eichstätt with the recommendation of six goals and five assists in 18 matches of the Regionalliga Bayern. For the native Nuremberger, the move to Dortmund is a quick next career step, as Mutove had only transferred from the fifth-tier Bayernliga to Eichstätt last summer. According to transfermarkt.de, BVB is even said to have offered Mutove a professional perspective.
