Arsenal and Barcelona are reportedly monitoring Borussia Dortmund midfielder Julian Brandt, who will become a free agent this summer after seven years at the club.
Arsenal and Barcelona are among several clubs reportedly keeping a close eye on Julian Brandt ahead of the summer transfer window. The attacking midfielder is expected to become a free agent once his contract with Borussia Dortmund expires.
Brandt recently confirmed that he intends to leave Dortmund after seven years at the club. The 29-year-old is believed to be seeking a new challenge abroad as he prepares for the next stage of his career.
Interest in the German playmaker extends across several major European leagues. Clubs from Spain, Italy, and England are all considered potential destinations for the experienced midfielder.
Despite the growing speculation, no formal negotiations have reportedly taken place between Brandt’s representatives and any interested club. Discussions remain at an early stage as teams continue to monitor his situation.
According to reports from Germany, Brandt also received two inquiries from Premier League clubs during the winter transfer window. However, he chose to decline those approaches in order to finish the current season with Dortmund.
The midfielder has remained an important figure for Dortmund this campaign. Under the management of Niko Kovač, Brandt has continued to play a key role in the team’s attacking setup.
So far this season, Brandt has recorded 10 goals and five assists in 32 appearances across all competitions, further highlighting why several top European clubs are closely tracking his availability ahead of the summer.
