However, with the likes of Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, and Liverpool keeping tabs on the German international, BVB are also preparing for the worst-case scenario.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Premier League Replacement<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BVB have identified Chelsea\u2019s Axel Disasi as a potential replacement should Schlotterbeck leave next summer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 27-year-old is surplus to requires at Chelsea and isn\u2019t even training with the first team as it stands. Although Chelsea paid \u20ac45m for the Frenchman in 2023, he\u2019ll be available for much less given the lack of playing time. What\u2019s more, his \u20ac5m yearly salary is well within Dortmund\u2019s financial range.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Disasi has previously played under current BVB head coach Niko Kova\u010d during his time at AS Monaco. Now, a reunion could be on the cards should Schlotterbeck leave, or even if Niklas S\u00fcle leaves the club when his deal also runs out in the summer of 2026.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GGFN |<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/j-allen.bsky.social\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jamie Allen<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As reported by Bild, Borussia Dortmund have identified a potential Nico Schlotterbeck replacement should the defender not extend his contract at the club.\u00a0 Getting the 25-year-old central defender to extend&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12312413,"featured_media":104452,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[338,11,18,843,844,444,23],"tags":[3587,476,449,106,1028,1206,3405,973,1461],"class_list":["post-104451","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-borussia-dortmund","category-bundesliga","category-news","category-other-leagues","category-premier-league","category-rumour-mill","category-transfers","tag-axel-disasi","tag-borussia-dortmund","tag-bundesliga","tag-chelsea","tag-news","tag-nico-schlotterbeck","tag-premeir-league","tag-rumour","tag-transfer"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104451","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12312413"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=104451"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104451\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":104453,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104451\/revisions\/104453"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/104452"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=104451"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=104451"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.getfootballnewsgermany.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=104451"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
