Earlier this summer, Dortmund signed Belgium midfielder Axel Witsel, Denmark international Thomas Delaney, defender Abdou Diallo, winger Marius Wolf and keepers Marwin Hitz and Eric Oelschlaegel. Full-back Achraf Hakimi joined on a two-year loan from Real Madrid.
They are expected to offload fringe players such as attacker Alexander Isak and midfielder Sebastian Rode in January but have ruled out selling United States captain Christian Pulisic.
