"Bayern have already submitted their interest in Nico Schlotterbeck to his camp. Other top clubs are watching the situation. The German international wants to wait for the new year before making a decision on whether he will extend his contract at Borussia Dortmund. If they see that their sporting goals are in jeopardy with a Schlotterbeck sale, BVB would be willing to risk going into the final year of his contract."
"It seems as if Schlotterbeck is starting to come into his own and could be an attractive option for the Bavarians as they look to solidify their backline for the future. Bayern Munich looked pretty tired by the end of its 2-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund and now must quickly rebound for a Champions League showdown with Belgian power Club Brugge. On paper, Bayern Munich figures to be a heavy favorite, but Club Brugge has been tough in the Champions League so far."
Bayern Munich has submitted formal interest in Borussia Dortmund center-back Nico Schlotterbeck, with other top clubs monitoring the situation. The Germany international plans to wait until the new year before deciding whether to extend his Dortmund contract. If Dortmund concludes they cannot adequately replace Schlotterbeck, the club would prefer to keep him and enter the final contract year rather than sell, mirroring Dortmund's 2013 handling of Robert Lewandowski. Schlotterbeck is gaining form and could strengthen Bayern's defense. Bayern must quickly recover after a tiring 2-1 win over Dortmund ahead of a challenging Champions League tie with Club Brugge.
