21-year-old Club Brugge striker Nicolo Tresoldi has emerged as a top target in the summer transfer market. The German forward, a rising star in the youth national team setup, enjoyed a prolific campaign, recording 23 goals and 9 assists across 58 appearances.
His impressive form has put him on the radar of Europe's biggest clubs. Arsenal initiated discussions during the season, but the London side has yet to make a definitive move. This hesitation has opened the door for Borussia Dortmund to step in.
Reports indicate that the German club has reached an agreement with the player's agents and is preparing an official bid. The transfer remains a financial challenge, however; while Club Brugge are holding out for at least €35 million, Dortmund's opening bid is expected to be in the region of €30 million.
