Borussia Dortmund are interested in signing David Raum, and the TSG Hoffenheim left-back is also said to be keen on the move.

Borussia Dortmund have already made a big splash in the transfer market, but their business is by no means done just yet. In addition to a striker, the Black and Yellows would also like to sign a new left-back this summer. And they have identified David Raum as their top target for the position.

According to Sky Sport, there has already been contact between Raum and Borussia Dortmund. And the player is also said to be interested in a move to Dortmund.

Hoffenheim are also open to selling Raum this summer. But signing the German international will certainly not be easy, as he reportedly has a release clause of more than 30 million euros in his Hoffenheim contract.

In order to be able to afford Raum, Borussia Dortmund must first sell Raphael Guerreiro and Nico Schulz. In addition, Manuel Akanji is also free to leave this summer. But the BVB bosses have yet to receive a concrete offer for the trio.

Raum is coming off an impressive season with Hoffenheim that saw him score three goals and register 13 assists in 32 Bundesliga appearances. His performances have seen him attract the interest of a number of clubs.

It will be interesting to see if Borussia Dortmund actually decide to pursue a move for David Raum this summer. The 24 year old has established himself as one of the top left-backs in the Bundesliga. But Dortmund will have to make some sales before they can afford to sign him.
