"Earlier this season, Borussia Dortmund defender Nico Schlotterbeck was linked with a potential move to Bayern Munich during the 2026 summer transfer window, but the German international diplomatically played down the links at the time. Interest from Bayern in Schlotterbeck had grown when the futures of both Dayot Upamecano and Kim Min-jae were more unclear, though there are still currently some financial roadblocks standing in the way of the former and Bayern agreeing on a contract extension."
"Per information from Sport Bild correspondent Christian Falk (via @iMiaSanMia), former Bayern club president Uli Hoeneß would still very much like the German Rekordmeister to make a serious move for Schlotterbeck. The Bundesliga champion's honorary president has long since been of fan of the defender and wanted Bayern to sign him back when he was with SC Freiburg, but he chose to go to Dortmund back in the summer of 2022 for a fee of around 25 million euros."
Nico Schlotterbeck is under contract with Borussia Dortmund until June 2027 and carries a market valuation of €40 million, a figure that rose toward the end of last season. Bayern Munich interest grew amid uncertainty over Dayot Upamecano and Kim Min-jae, though financial roadblocks hinder an extension with Upamecano and make his future unclear. Uli Hoeneß remains an admirer of Schlotterbeck and has supported Bayern pursuing him since his SC Freiburg days; Schlotterbeck moved to Dortmund in summer 2022 for about €25 million. Schlotterbeck has had intermittent injuries, but could likely start for Germany when fully fit; several family members are Bayern fans, potentially influencing his options.
