Dortmund – Is there another spectacular deal in the Bundesliga?
Borussia Dortmund are looking for a replacement for Sébastien Haller.
Now you will apparently find what you are looking for in Cologne: Anthony Modeste should switch from FC to BVB.
According to
Sport1
information, there is already a "fundamental agreement" between black and yellow and the goalscorer, BVB have submitted an offer to Cologne.
The association did
not want to comment on this when asked by
SID .
Modeste to BVB: Dortmund before transfer from Köln-Star
Explosive: The message popped up just before the Cologne season opener on Sunday evening (5:30 p.m.) against Schalke 04.
Will Modeste still be in the squad when his club meets the promoted team?
Normally players who are close to a change are no longer fielded to avoid possible injuries.
The Frenchman scored 20 goals for Cologne last season.
As a very good header and experienced, but also affordable player, the 34-year-old would fit the profile perfectly.
Borussia had already signed midfielder Salih Özcan from “Effzeh” before the season.

In Dortmund they would be only too happy to do without the striker debate, but: A replacement must be found for Haller (28), who was only committed in the summer.
The Ivorian came from Ajax Amsterdam and is the most expensive striker in Dortmund club history.
However, during the prep, he was diagnosed with testicular cancer.
He has to undergo chemotherapy and will be out for months.
