Dortmund Rules Out Summer Sale of Felix Nmecha

The club says keeping the 25-year-old will protect its midfield core and limit transfer disruption before the World Cup.

Overview

  • On Wednesday, May 27, 2026, sporting director Ole Book told Sport Bild that Felix Nmecha will remain at Borussia Dortmund next season and is not for sale this summer.
  • Nmecha signed a contract extension in March that runs to 2030, though media reports of an exit clause in that deal have not been publicly confirmed.
  • Sporting chief Lars Ricken said the club is negotiating a new contract with Karim Adeyemi and will likely seek a sale before the season if no extension is reached.
  • Dortmund plans targeted offensive reinforcements to add creativity and more decisive finishing after finishing the Bundesliga season as runners-up.
  • The club also signalled stability in leadership by stating a preference to continue with coach Niko Kovač beyond 2027, a move meant to support squad development and planning.
