Future decisions at Borussia Dortmund: Who remains, who goes?

In the current situation at Borussia Dortmund, the focus is on the contract extensions by Emre Can and Julian Brandt. Both players have contracts that run by June 30, 2026. According to reports, the association plans to enter into a contract extension only with one of the two players. While Emre Can, who plays more stable in central defense than in defensive midfield, is considered a candidate, his prospect of extension seems to be low. His current content is 8 million euros annually, which limits the financial possibilities for future transfers, such as Ruhr24 reported.

Another topic is Niklas Süle, whose content of 14 million euros is also a hurdle annually. The association only takes a contract extension if Süle were willing to do without half of its salary. In contrast, Julian Brandt is considered an important player, especially after a failure due to muscular problems that affected the creativity of the team. The responsible persons believe in his skills and see him as a figurehead of the association. Negotiations on a new contract for Brandt should begin soon, with a possible extension by summer 2028.
