Dortmund open to Ryerson sale amid Manchester United, Liverpool and Barcelona interest

Borussia Dortmund are prepared to part with Julian Ryerson this summer if their €30 million valuation is met, according to Bild, with Manchester United, Liverpool and Barcelona all monitoring the Norwegian wing-back.

Ryerson, 28, has enhanced his reputation during a prolific campaign in which he has supplied 14 assists for the Bundesliga side. The former Union Berlin defender, signed for €5 million in January 2023, is contracted to the Black and Yellows through 2028, leaving Dortmund in a strong negotiating position.

Club officials have indicated they will not be forced into a sale, but the €30 million release clause has been set for any suitor wishing to secure his services ahead of next season. Interest from three of Europe’s heavyweight clubs suggests a competitive race could develop once the transfer window opens.

Ryerson’s stock could rise further at the upcoming World Cup, where he is expected to feature prominently for Norway alongside prolific forwards Erling Haaland and Alexander Sørloth. A strong international showing may prompt Dortmund to harden their stance or encourage potential buyers to move quickly.

For now, the Bundesliga outfit remain relaxed, content to retain a key contributor if their financial demands are not satisfied.
