Sky Sports: Dortmund is tight in funds, with only a transfer budget of 30-40 million euros this summer

June 8 According to German Sky Sports, Dortmund is short of funds and only has a transfer budget of 30-40 million euros this summer.

Dotter executive Eichmann said in an interview: "Our UEFA Champions League revenue was about 130 million euros last season, but if you spend 268 million euros in total, you have to earn that money elsewhere until you break even." Dortmund is known for raising young players and then selling them at a high price, but they spent 100 million euros in the transfer market last season and earned 60 million euros (signing Beyer, Gilasi, Gross, Anton, Cootto, and selling Phil Kruger and Mullen). If Dortmund cannot compete in the Champions League next season, they may have a serious financial crisis.

Dotter has only a transfer budget of 30 million to 40 million euros this summer. If they spend about 30 million euros to sign Job Bellingham, there will be no more money left, so they still need to streamline their lineup. This summer, one player may greatly improve Dortmund's transfer break-even, and that is Gittens. According to Sky Sports, if a offer of 50 million to 60 million euros is received, Dortmund is willing to sell Gittens, and they may also sell Gittens, Julian Brandt, and Marcel Sabitzer.
