Borussia Dortmund's Cole Campbell Sparks Transfer Interest Amid Playing Time Concerns
March 26, 2025
Additionally, Dortmund is reportedly looking to sign forward Oumar Camara from Paris Saint-Germain, which may further complicate Campbell's situation.
Both Leverkusen and Stuttgart are closely monitoring Campbell's situation at Dortmund, viewing him as a valuable asset.
While a move to either Bundesliga club could provide Campbell with the playing time he seeks, it also carries the risk of having to adjust to a new environment.
Cole Campbell, a winger for Borussia Dortmund, is garnering interest from Bundesliga clubs Bayer Leverkusen and VfB Stuttgart.
To retain Campbell long-term, Dortmund will need to provide him with a clear path to more playing time.
The 19-year-old has made six competitive appearances for Dortmund this season, including matches in the Bundesliga and Champions League, but has yet to secure a regular spot in the first team.
His appeal extends beyond Germany, with several Premier League and La Liga teams also showing interest in the young player.
Currently under contract with Dortmund until 2028, the club holds a strong negotiating position, making an outright sale unlikely but a loan deal this summer a possibility.
Should Dortmund decide to sell players like Jamie Bynoe-Gittens this summer, it could create new opportunities for Campbell within the squad.
After a brief promotion to the first team during an injury crisis in late 2024, Campbell returned to Dortmund's U23 team, where he has scored 2 goals and provided 1 assist in 11 appearances.
The lack of consistent playing time has fueled speculation about a potential transfer, with Leverkusen and Stuttgart both seen as viable options.
