Youssoufa Moukoko given Dortmund ultimatum after 'very attractive offer' amid Newcastle links

Bourissia Dortmund striker Youssoufa Moukoko has been given an ultimatum by the club's sporting director Sebastian Kehl. The Bundesliga chief says the club have made the young forward a very attractive offer to stay with Die Schwarzgelben as speculation mounts regarding his future.

The 18-year-old German international is out of contract with Dortmund this summer and has been linked with a move to Newcastle United, while Chelsea are also reportedly keen. Moukoko is regarded as one of the brightest talents in world football, having made 59 appearances for Dortmund, scoring 12 goals in all competitions as a young age.

Tipped to be the future of German football, Moukoko is reportedly mulling over a fresh offer from the Bundesliga side, having turned down a previous offer. Chronicle Live understands Newcastle are keen on signing the youngster as a free agent in the summer.

Speaking in an interview with German sports publication Kicker, Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl said: "We have put together a very attractive offer that gives him a lot of room for development.

"That should lead to a decision. He has to make it with his environment and his advisor. Youssoufa can now accept this offer and commit to Borussia Dortmund - or we will go our separate ways. I would like him to choose us because he is not yet at the end of his development and I see potential in him."
