Exclusive: Mats Hummels Nearing Borussia Dortmund Departure
Mats Hummels, the veteran centre-back of Borussia Dortmund, is reportedly on the brink of leaving the club this summer. With his contract set to expire at the end of the season, the chances of him extending his stay seem slim.
As Borussia Dortmund gears up for their first UEFA Champions League final since 2013, all eyes are on Hummels as a key player in their quest for glory against Real Madrid. However, amidst the excitement of the final, rumors of his potential exit have started to surface.
According to Sky Sport, the 35-year-old defender is leaning towards a free transfer move away from Borussia Dortmund. Clubs like AC Milan and Juventus have shown interest in acquiring his services, with a move to Italy being a viable option for Hummels.
