Kasper Dolberg

Dolberg was heavily linked with Borussia Dortmund in September, but the speculation has quietened since then. Dortmund are in the market for a striker who can potentially replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and Dolberg would be a perfect fit for the club.

Dolberg is a different style of player compared to Aubameyang, and he would give the club a new dimension in attack. Dortmund have struggled in the absence of Aubameyang this season. While a lack of competition has also resulted in the Gabonese striker taking it easy at times.

The Danish international has been consistently scoring goals since making the breakthrough at Ajax under Peter Bosz. He has also earned comparisons to the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Dennis Berkgamp.

Dolberg is one of the brightest talents in world football, and signing him could prove to be a masterstroke for the club. However, with Real Madrid and Manchester United also interested in him, signing Dolberg may not prove to be easy for Borussia Dortmund.
