In the club environment, there are discussions about mutual plans for an early separation between 23-year-old Brazilian international Yan Couto and Borussia Dortmund, and it is considered likely that concrete talks will happen. A total of 25 million euros in loan fees and transfer fees were paid by Borussia Dortmund for Yan Couto to Manchester City, plus a salary of five million euros until 2030. Yan Couto is at least as dissatisfied with his role at BVB as the club is with his performances, having recorded one goal and three assists in 17 Bundesliga appearances this season. It is considered certain that no interested party will pay a price close to what Dortmund did two years ago; the player's current market value is €20.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
