Nico Schlotterbeck is available
El Desmarque in Spain claims Borussia Dortmund have essentially accepted that they’ll lose Nico Schlotterbeck in the summer. The centre-back will enter the final year of his contract there.
Dortmund have long held out hope that he'd renew. Interest in Schlotterbeck has continued to grow, however, and a renewal now looks incredibly unlikely.
Instead, he'll be sold while there's still value there. The Spanish report is on the back of Real Madrid's strong interest in Schlotterbeck – but they're far from alone in that.
