Borussia Dortmund withdraw from race to sign Wael Mohya – report

Borussia Dortmund have reportedly ended their interest in signing Borussia Mönchengladbach youngster Wael Mohya, despite previously being linked with a move for the highly rated attacker.

The 17-year-old has attracted attention with his performances for Gladbach, but Dortmund have now finalised their transfer plans and are not expected to pursue his signature.

Dortmund change plans over Mohya

According to the BILD podcast Dortmund Insider, Dortmund’s management rate Mohya highly and consider him a “super player”.

However, the Bundesliga side have reportedly ruled out a move for the youngster, who is under contract with Borussia Mönchengladbach until 2028.

Mathis Albert factor in Dortmund decision

The report suggests Dortmund’s decision is partly influenced by the presence of another 17-year-old talent, Mathis Albert.

The United States international has a similar playing style to Mohya and is already part of Dortmund’s setup.

Although Albert has not featured as frequently as expected this season, the club reportedly have significant confidence in his potential.

According to the podcast, the homegrown talent is “trusted with an incredible amount” internally.

Dortmund’s decision means they are no longer expected to compete for Mohya’s signature, despite their admiration for the Borussia Mönchengladbach prospect.
