Julian Brandt's future at Borussia Dortmund is uncertain as his contract expires next year. Lars Ricken, the managing director, mentioned on 'Sky' that they are open to a contract extension if his performance improves. Brandt has struggled in the past season and lost his starting position under Niko Kovac but managed to score after being substituted during the season opener against FC St. Pauli.

Borussia Dortmund aims to make Julian Brandt a key figure for the future. The club is initiating contract extension talks with Brandt, as reported by 'Sport Bild'. The new contract is expected to last until 2028, with discussions set to begin soon with the 30-year-old.
