Borussia Dortmund center back Nico Schlotterbeck has been forced to deny a report that he will imminently sign a new contract with the Bundesliga club. While it doesn’t immediately point to a transfer instead, the door at least remains open for Liverpool or Real Madrid.
Schlotterbeck’s current contract has only one season left after this one and it will be an important time for the 26-year-old Germany international, considered a talented option when some of Europe’s biggest teams are in need of defensive recruitment.
