Moroccan defender Abdelhamid Ait Boudlal open to Dortmund move

Borussia Dortmund has reportedly set its sights on Moroccan defender Abdelhamid Ait Boudlal as a key target for the upcoming summer transfer window.

According to a source, the youngster is also open to the move, provided the German giants are able to seal a deal with his club.

The 20-year-old, currently playing for Rennes, has attracted interest for his defensive prowess and performances at both club and national team levels.

According to the German network Sky Sports, Dortmund is prepared to enter negotiations with Rennes to secure the Moroccan international’s services next summer.

The club views Ait Boudlal as a priority signing to strengthen its defense, though the deal is likely contingent on the confirmed transfer of defender Jeremy Jacquet to Liverpool.

Reports indicate that Rennes may be hesitant to release a second defender unless Dortmund meets the club’s financial demands, making the completion of the transfer a potential negotiation challenge.
