BVB planning with Albert: youngster set to kick on next season | OneFootball

At Borussia Dortmund, young talents are expected to get more chances in the new season. That process already began last season with Samuele Inacio and Luca Reggiani.

Dortmund’s squad is once again well suited to integrating youngsters on a regular basis in the new season. On the one hand, it is not tremendously deep, and on the other, there are simply a handful of young players available who bring real quality.

One of them is Mathis Albert. He especially caught the eye in the friendly against Düsseldorf (1–2). The US teenager scored BVB’s opener, impressed with quick dribbles and his explosiveness. He was Dortmund’s standout player in the defeat to the third-division side.

Albert set to continue his integration in Japan

He has now traveled to Japan with the team and will gain further experience there as part of the Asia tour. At BVB, they are hoping Albert has a similar developmental step in him to the one Inacio and Reggiani recently made.

In 2024, Albert moved from the LA Galaxy academy to the Black and Yellows. PSG had wanted to sign him much earlier, and there have reportedly already been several inquiries about him recently as well.

That is no surprise, because his profile is impressive and his abilities are highly developed. If he manages to show that consistently, then he is an option for the senior squad.

Dortmund want to develop him carefully, but according to a BILD report, they are already planning with the expectation that he can take major steps forward. His natural position is on the left wing, but he can also play on the right and, if necessary, in a central role. That is exactly the kind of profile that could make him so valuable for Dortmund.
