BVB: Young prospect likely to leave as negotiations continue

Nick Cherny may be set to leave Borussia Dortmund after deciding not to renew his expiring contract. The 18-year-old attacking all-rounder, whose season is likely to end prematurely through injury, moved from Arminia Bielefeld’s youth setup in summer 2023 and won the U17 championship with both clubs.

For Dortmund’s reserves he scored two goals in ten Regionalliga West appearances but is said to lack sufficient opportunities to develop, and there are interested clubs in the top flight and the 2. Bundesliga. BVB II head coach Daniel Rios said: "He was on the right track.

That makes it all the more bitter that we no longer have him at our disposal." Talks over Nico Schlotterbeck’s future have reportedly taken a new dynamic after another round of negotiations, and the 23-time German international is said to be leaning more towards extending his contract.
