Borussia Dortmund ready to negotiate with Aston Villa over Malen
Winger Donyell Malen has struggled to make a strong impression at Borussia Dortmund, and the club is now looking to sell him. However, the "Black and Yellows" are determined to secure the best possible deal for his transfer.
Details: According to The Athletic, Aston Villa has shown interest in the 25-year-old winger and has already submitted two transfer bids to Dortmund. The first offer, totaling €16 million plus bonuses, was rejected by Dortmund's management. A second offer, increasing the guaranteed fee by €2 million, remains unanswered for now.
Despite their willingness to part ways with Malen, Dortmund aims to secure more than €20 million in guaranteed cash from the transfer.
Reminder: This season, under Nuri Şahin, Malen has made 20 appearances, scoring five goals and providing one assist.
