Borussia Dortmund is reportedly on the verge of securing Fisnik Asllani, the talented forward currently playing for TSG Hoffenheim.

A prominent football commentator, Arlind Sadiku, has confirmed that the transfer of the striker to BVB is finalized. According to Sadiku, all the intricate details of the transaction have already been settled.

• Despite being under contract with Hoffenheim until 2029, the Kosovan player benefits from a performance-linked release clause. With Borussia Dortmund consistently qualifying for the Champions League group stage over the past three seasons, this specific provision has been activated, setting the transfer fee at precisely 30 million euros.

  The 23-year-old attacker has truly emerged as a standout talent throughout the recently concluded season. Boasting an impressive tally of eleven goals and ten assists in 35 official matches, Asllani has unequivocally showcased his capabilities, cementing his status as one of the Bundesliga’s most coveted forwards.

• BVB squad dynamics: what’s next for guirassy and adeyemi?

  Asllani’s anticipated arrival is expected to ignite a significant reshuffle within BVB’s offensive contingent. The integration of another high-caliber striker strongly implies potential departures from the Black and Yellows’ attacking lineup, with Serhou Guirassy and Karim Adeyemi frequently cited as players who could be on their way out.

  Karamba Guirassy, brother and advisor to the 30-year-old Serhou Guirassy, recently moved to quash speculation regarding an already agreed-upon transfer to Turkish club Fenerbahçe. He explicitly stated, “To clarify: no agreement of any kind has been concluded. Serhou is currently evaluating his options for the upcoming season. Allegations of a verbal agreement are simply false.”

  Borussia Dortmund’s management has reportedly reignited discussions, presenting Guirassy with a comprehensive long-term project at Signal Iduna Park in an effort to extend his stay beyond the current season. However, a significant hurdle for the Black and Yellows is that the 30-year-old forward is widely anticipated to defer any decision about his future until after the World Cup concludes.

  A quick review of the Guinean’s impressive statistics clearly illustrates why he is so highly sought after and why BVB is fighting to retain him: since 2024, he has participated in 96 official matches, scoring 60 goals and providing 15 assists.

  Next season will mark the final year of Karim Adeyemi’s current contract. Should BVB fail to secure an extension for the attacker, who arrived in 2022, he would become eligible for a free transfer in the summer of 2027.

  Negotiations are widely anticipated to be challenging: the 24-year-old player, currently earning approximately 6.5 million euros annually, is reportedly seeking a salary exceeding ten million. Furthermore, Adeyemi and his representatives are pushing for the inclusion of a release clause. Given the noticeable fluctuations in the player’s performances, Borussia Dortmund’s management appears disinclined to fully satisfy his demands.

  Under coach Niko Kovac, the attacker has not established himself as an undisputed starter, featuring in 28 Bundesliga appearances with an average of merely 42 minutes per match, and netting only four goals across all competitions throughout 2026.
