"Liverpool are reportedly one of the clubs in the mix for the potential transfer of Borussia Dortmund centre-back Nico Schlotterbeck. The Germany international has shone during his time at Dortmund and it seems he's now attracting interest from bigger clubs. According to Bild, Schlotterbeck is on the agenda at Bayern Munich, who could be about to lose Dayot Upamecano on a free transfer when his contract expires next summer."
"Schlotterbeck could well be on his way out of Dortmund due to the low contract he current has with the club. One imagines this could give Liverpool and Bayern a big opportunity, as they'd likely be able to offer the 25-year-old significantly more in wages than BVB can. Still, since reaching an agreement over a new deal with Konate has proven challenging for LFC, it remains to be seen if they'd find Schlotterbeck's demands that much easier to meet."
Nico Schlotterbeck is attracting transfer interest from Liverpool and Bayern Munich due to his performances at Borussia Dortmund and a relatively low existing contract. Bayern could need a centre-back if Dayot Upamecano leaves on a free next summer. Liverpool face defensive uncertainty with Ibrahima Konate approaching free-agent status and are exploring multiple defensive targets. Schlotterbeck's current market value is about €40m on Transfermarkt and his Borussia Dortmund contract runs until 2027, which could lower his price if no new deal is reached. Higher wages from bigger clubs could make a move likely, offering Liverpool long-term cover for Virgil van Dijk.
