According to Krone.at, Patrick Wimmer has been linked with Borussia Dortmund. Wimmer's contract with Wolfsburg is valid until 2027, and a departure is considered likely in the event of Wolfsburg's relegation to the 2. Bundesliga.

The Ruhr Nachrichten has suggested a potential move for Patrick Wimmer to Borussia Dortmund. Coach Niko Kovac is described as greatly admiring Patrick Wimmer, whom he knows from their time together at VfL Wolfsburg. According to the regional newspaper, the link is not yet particularly advanced. Patrick Wimmer is still under contract at VfL Wolfsburg until 2027. It is considered unlikely that Wimmer would go to the second division with the club and he could become available in the summer at an affordable price.

Borussia Dortmund, which had previously been linked with Patrick Wimmer, remains interested in the player. Wimmer, who is currently with VfL Wolfsburg and contracted until 2027, has drawn attention from various clubs, such as Premier League teams FC Fulham and Leicester City, along with AC Milan and Juventus. Despite his existing contract, Wimmer has suggested that he is eager for a career change, indicating his readiness for the next step. Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig, both of which have expressed interest before, are still keeping a watchful eye on the Austrian international.
