Dortmund is considering new reinforcements, and in addition to Hakim Ziyech, Denis Zakaria and Everton from Benfica, there is also talk about Giorgian de Arrascaeta.
Dortmund had a bad half-season. The lag of nine points behind Bayern practically means that the race for the Bundesliga title has been lost, but Hans-Joachim Watzke and his associates are planning serious reinforcements during the winter break.
Just a few days ago, it was speculated that Dortmund, unlike in previous seasons, this time is shooting at proven names. Now the word is about one of the best players from the South American continent, Giorgian de Arrascaeta.
He is an authentic master of football, a distinct creative who has never tried his hand in Europe. De Arrascaeta has another one-year contract with Flamengo and negotiations are underway to continue cooperation. The Germans allegedly want to use that vacuum and get an Uruguayan for relatively little money. The figure of 8,000,000 euros is mentioned.
Flamengo bought de Arrascaeta two years ago from Cruzeiro for close to 15,000,000 euros. This season, the experienced midfielder is playing extraordinarily. He scored nine goals and assisted for 16 more.
