Puzzlement: what's being whispered in the BVB dressing room

Borussia Dortmund have already brought in one or two players this summer, but primarily for the defense. In attack, however, there is still work to do following Julian Brandt’s departure and with further possible changes to the squad.

Karim Adeyemi is keen on a move to Barcelona, while there are currently no concrete options for Serhou Guirassy apart from Fenerbahce — and that is not really where he wants to go. However, a lot can still change over the course of the summer.

Meanwhile, there has been whispering from inside the Dortmund dressing room about the plans of those in charge. Specifically, the question is how BVB intend to strengthen the team further. This has now been revealed on the BVB podcast “Auffe Süd”.

BVB: What is causing surprise within the team

“We already said it before the Bundesliga break: it will be a very tough summer for BVB and for Ole Book to put together a team capable of mounting a challenge,” Jesco von Eichmann explained on the podcast.

So far, the BVB reporter has not really seen any major progress when it comes to new signings, “but we are still far from the end of the transfer window,” von Eichmann admits. Aside from Konstantinos Karetsas, with whom BVB are currently negotiating with KRC Genk, not a great deal is happening at the moment.

The fact that things are a bit stalled right now is also a topic within the squad. “Apparently, there are also a few players who want to seek talks in Japan with Lars Ricken and Ole Book to get a feel for where things are actually heading,” Patrick Berger explains on the podcast. The players are aware that many things are not quite so simple this summer. Even with desired targets such as Kennet Eichhorn, BVB have already come up short.

What is clear is that solutions are needed soon. BVB want to continue trying to get the squad into better shape, but they also know full well how heated the market is.
