As we all know, Dortmund centre-forward Haaland has already attracted the attention of many powerful players. It is reported that the Norwegian striker, who averages more than 1 goal per game, is likely to leave the Hornets this summer for a larger platform. Finding a goal machine like Haaland is not easy, and Dortmund have begun to prepare for a replacement, focusing on the following three main goals.
The most rumored player is Salzburg Red Bull forward Adeyemi, who just turned 20 last month and set a new career-high in goals this season, scoring 19 goals in 33 appearances in all competitions and having four assists. Among them, he played 7 times in the Champions League, contributed 3 goals and 2 assists, and has become the team's forward thigh. The outstanding performance has also made Adeyemi's value rise, and it has now risen to 35 million euros, becoming the most expensive player in the team. As early as January this year, Dortmund supervisor Zorck personally went to Salzburg to negotiate, although the Hornets finally pushed Barcelona, Atletico, Bayern and other teams to obtain the initiative to transfer, but Dort hoped to sign Adeyemi for less than 30 million euros, which was far from the asking price of 40 million euros in Salzburg and ultimately failed to take shape. According to the Ruhr daily newspaper, the deal will continue into this summer.
Because of the variables in Adeyemi's transfer, Borussia Dortmund also included Chelsea striker Werner in the reinforcement list. Werner has still failed to adapt to the Premier League this season, scoring just one goal and one assist in 12 appearances, plus six league goals last season, and the German international has not been able to raise the league goals to double digits. Considering Werner's previous goalscoring performance in the Bundesliga, and the fact that his agent is the same person as Jules, who has already signed, the deal has a certain possibility, and Chelsea is also open; perhaps Werner's annual salary of up to 16 million euros is the biggest obstacle to the deal.
Dortmund's third choice comes from Benfica striker Núñez, uruguayan striker 23 years old, 187 cm tall, has made 30 appearances this season, scored 25 goals and assisted 2 times, and is also the highest value in the team for 32 million euros. Núñez has also received attention from many Clubs in Europe, and the liquidated damages in his contract are as high as 150 million, and Benfica's asking price for him is 50 million to 60 million euros, so the deal has been looked down upon by many media.
