According to a report in local news source Ruhr Nachrichten, David Blacha is expected to follow Nils-Ole Book to Borussia Dortmund in summer.

Out of respect for his ex-club SV Elversberg, Book did not bring his confidant David Blacha with him to BVB back in March. 

Now, however, the report states that Blacha is likely to follow suit and team up with his old colleague once again, but now at Dortmund.

Interestingly, rumours surrounding Blancha joining the Westphalians were picked up by Kicker.de in early April

Book and Blacha worked closely and successfully together at the Saarland club, almost achieving promotion to the Bundesliga.

What specific position the 35-year-old could potentially take on in Dortmund is still undecided at this moment in time.

Blacha progressed from a scout role to being appointed as head of football at Elversberg, who are fourth in the 2.Bundesliga table.
