Ramy Bensebaini is and remains an interesting personality for Borussia Dortmund. The club would like to strengthen on the left side – but it probably doesn’t amount to a winter transfer.
Raphael Guerreiro’s contract expires at the end of the season. It is currently unclear whether BVB would like to work with him beyond the summer. But even with him there is definitely a shortage of personnel in the left-back position. After all, apart from the Portuguese, there is only 18-year-old Tom Rothe, who also learned this position. Nico Schulz, on the other hand, no longer plays a role at all.
The need to strengthen at the back left is correspondingly great. Even if Guerreiro should stay, but above all if they part ways after the current season.
Ramy Bensebaini is and remains an option. Already a few months ago, with regard to the last summer transfer window, the Gladbacher was linked with Dortmund. Most recently, the Ruhr Nachrichten spoke of the fact that black and yellow had intensified contact with him again.
Appropriately, Skydas has now picked up the rumor. According to reporter Florian Plettenberg, the 27-year-old should “very well imagine” a change from one Borussia to the other. It is said that he is “high on the list” at BVB.
Nevertheless, a change in winter seems to be impossible. Gladbach would still be able to achieve a small transfer fee before his contract expires at the end of June and he can move on a free transfer, but he is too important for Daniel Farke’s team. And on the part of Dortmund, the need is not so acute that they would put money on the table because of the few months.
So the focus is on the still somewhat distant end of the season. Then, according to the information from Sky, “the personnel could get hot”.
Even if Gladbach should offer a contract extension, possibly even on better terms, BVB’s likely interest will leave its mark. After all, Bensebaini would have better chances of playing for titles and being regularly active in the Champions League.
