Atubolu Option Collapses for Borussia Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund had Noah Atubolu on their list for the case of Gregor Kobel's departure. But without a Kobel transfer, this option for Atubolu has collapsed. The German goalkeeper Noah Atubolu has still not found a new club, not even at Borussia Dortmund. In the case of a departure from Gregor Kobel, Borussia Dortmund might have made a move for Noah Atubolu.
What happens next?
Since he has still not found a new club by mid-August, the discontent is growing among the transfer-willing Freiburger. According to the ‚kicker‘, Atubolu is already unhappy with the work of his agency Epic Sports „for a long time“. This has made him enthusiastic about three attractive if-then scenarios and kept him in good spirits. So Atubolu has been made to believe that he is a hot candidate for AC Milan and Aston Villa, but only in the case of the departure of the current number one at each club.
Further options for Atubolu
What options are left for the goalkeeper, who wants to recommend himself for the German national team? Olympique Marseille, after Géronimo Rulli's (34) departure to Manchester City, is looking for a new starting goalkeeper and has reportedly made a first, too low offer to Freiburg. The Ligue 1 club is now preparing a new offer. The competitors AFC Bournemouth and SSC Napoli have not yet made an offer in the Breisgau. Juventus Turin is also said to be interested in Atubolu. As a Freiburger transfer fee, 15 to 20 million euros are on the table a year before the contract expires.
