Borussia Dortmund could face a busy summer on the transfer market. According to Bild, the club have €80 million to spend on new players. Bild reports that Dortmund are at least looking for one defensive midfielder, three defenders and one striker.

The money will be available on the basis of the sales of Ousmane Dembele to FC Barcelona and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Arsenal while it is also planned that Sokratis Papastathopoulos will leave the club for around €20 million.

Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata could reportedly be an option for the striker position. Michy Batshuayi is expected to move back to Chelsea after his loan spell, but Morata is said to be looking for a new club after just one season in London.

Werder Bremen's Thomas Delaney has been mentioned as a possibility for the defensive midfield while Eintracht Frankfurt winger Marius Wolf has also been linked with a move to Dortmund.

Borussia Dortmund are yet to announce who will succeed Peter Stöger as manager, but Nice manager Lucien Favre is seen as the main candidate for the job.
