After strong World Cup with Norway: Julian Ryerson to Serie A? | OneFootball

Success is sexy. That is something the Norwegian national team is experiencing right now. At the World Cup, the Vikings charged all the way to the quarter-finals. In the last-eight clash on Saturday (11 July, 11 p.m. CEST), England await.

After the Scandinavians’ convincing performances so far, quite a few are backing Erling Haaland and Co. to go through. But it is not only the 25-year-old star striker causing a stir — his teammates have also come into the spotlight.

One of the guarantors of success is also a Dortmund player. Julian Ryerson (28) patrolled the right flank for more than an hour in the 2-1 round-of-16 win over Brazil. His performances at the World Cup have put the BVB pro in the spotlight. Manchester United in particular are said to be looking at the full-back.

However, interest in Ryerson is by no means limited to the Premier League. According to information from transfer expert Ekrem Konur on fussballdaten, the two Milan heavyweights, Inter and AC, are also considering the 28-year-old.

The Rossoneri reportedly see the Dortmund man as a serious reinforcement for the left side of their defence. However, signing a left-back is currently not a priority, it is said. Milan are first focusing on problem areas in attack and central midfield. For budget reasons, concrete negotiations with the BVB player would therefore only be expected after that.

BVB take a clear stance

Inter, on the other hand, definitely have a need for a player on the right flank after selling Denzel Dumfries (30) to Real Madrid. However, since the signing of Anan Khalaili (21) from Union Saint-Gilloise is close to being completed, a move for Ryerson would appear to be rather unlikely.

Borussia Dortmund have taken a clear position on a possible sale of Ryerson. The Norwegian is still under a long-term contract with the Black and Yellows until the summer of 2028 and is seen as a key pillar for the coming season. A departure would likely only become an option if an interested club came in with an exceptionally high fee.

At the moment, only one thing is certain: no official offer for Ryerson has yet arrived in Dortmund.
