Borussia Dortmund: All the big headlines from the past week
By Oliver Campo
Borussia Dortmund’s transfer window has been full of rumors, additions, departures and exciting possibilities. BVB will have more news as the winter transfer window comes to a close soon. Here are the latest stories.
Borussia Dortmund are USA bound in the Summer
Recently, news broke on Borussia Dortmund’s summer travels. In the last few years, Borussia Dortmund have participated in an Asia tour over their summer. Infamously, Peter Bosz nearly lost to Japanese club Uwara Reds just this past summer. Now, Dortmund will head to the International Champions Cup (ICC) for 2018 hosted in numerous cities across the USA.
Two matches with Borussia Dortmund include longtime rivals Bayern Munich in Chicago, Illinois and new MLS club LAFC (Los Angeles FC). Borussia Dortmund and LAFC have a partnership and it could be possible to see more BVB in the USA in the future.
These are the only confirmed games at this time and there is no word on when tickets go on sale. For fans in the USA, it is a dream come true to see the black and yellows go at it live in their own country.
No, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has not left, yet
It looks like the revolving door known as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s transfer rumors will never stop spinning. Reports are citing that Borussia Dortmund has rejected bids from Arsenal for the Gabon International. Seeing the striker not play in the previous two games, there is a possibility he will play against Freiburg. The other option is Aubameyang will be left out of the team again. At this point, BVB needs to sell and cut losses or have Aubameyang on board as a team player.
