Roman Bürki is set to sign a contract extension with Borussia Dortmund in the near future, the player and the club confirmed after Saturday's 1-0 win over Fortuna Düsseldorf.

"I'm pleased and hope that we will find a date next week to finalize the whole thing. I feel very comfortable here, I have been through a lot with BVB over the years and always felt the love of the club," Bürki told reporters.

The agreement was also confirmed by BVB sporting director Michael Zorc, who said:

"We have reached a final agreement and will sign a contract in the next few weeks. I'm very happy that we will have Roman with us for more years."

Bürki, whose current contract expires next year, will be signing a new deal that runs until 2023 at least, according to reports.
