BVB: Goalkeeper Roman Bürki apparently a candidate for Atletico Madrid

Goalkeeper Roman Bürki (30) from Borussia Dortmund is apparently a candidate for the Spanish top club and reigning champions Atletico Madrid. This reports the AS.

Accordingly, the Rojiblancos should be a “serious prospect” for the Swiss, who has lost his status as number one between the posts of BVB for some time. Last season Bürki had to cede this to his compatriot Marwin Hitz, with Gregor Kobel another keeper came to Dortmund for the new season.

After other interested parties, such as the Lille OSC, Olympique Marseille, AS Monaco and Inter Milan, have been active on the transfer market in a row and thus indirectly rejected BVB in terms of Bürki, Atletico is allegedly already in contact with the 30th -Year-olds included. A transfer would suit BVB very well, after all you should be willing to be able to remove Bürki from the payroll.

Roman Bürki came to BVB from Freiburg for the 2015/16 season. There he would theoretically be under contract until 2023.

BVB: Roman Bürki as number two behind Jan Oblak?

In the case of the capital city from Madrid, Bürki would also have to be satisfied with a place on the substitute bench. The Slovenian Jan Oblak has been the undisputed number one athlete for years and also one of the best keepers in the world.

Last season the Slovenian made all the games in the Spanish LaLiga and the UEFA Champions League, in the league he was one of the guarantors for the championship title. The substitute goalkeepers Miguel San Roman and Ivo Grbic were allowed to play in the Copa del Rey.

The latter could still leave the Rojiblancos – it should be the turn of the French title holder Lille – and would thus clear the way for Bürki.
