Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund are set to sign another talented young English footballer, and from a familiar source.
Having beaten off competition from the likes of Manchester United and Chelsea to sigh Birmingham City teenager Jude Bellingham last month, they have returned to Manchester City, the club from whom they acquired Jadon Sancho in 2017.
In this case the player in question is another winger Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, who was originally spotted an brought to the Etihad by their youth team lead scout Sam Fagbemi.
However, like Sancho before him, Bynoe-Gibbins is looking to leave City because he cannot see a path into the first team there. That is despite City being desperate to keep him.
His potential availability has sparked interest from clubs across Europe, including PSG, but Dortmund are ahead of them in the queue, and in advanced negotiations with his representatives.
