Transfer blow for BVB? City youngster in talks with Bundesliga club | OneFootball

Several clubs, including some from the Bundesliga, are currently vying for James McAtee from Manchester City. Until now, Borussia Dortmund was considered the most likely candidate, but now the U21 European champion is said to be visiting a Bundesliga competitor.

According to transfer insider Florian Plettenberg from Sky, McAtee will arrive in Frankfurt next week for talks. There, he wants to get a closer look at the club and get to know it.

It remains to be seen whether an agreement can be reached there. However, this also clearly signals that the transfer is not easy to realize from BVB's point of view.

On the other hand, the young Englishman could help Eintracht compensate for a possible departure of star player Hugo Ekitiké.
