Overview

  • Transfer reporter Florian Plettenberg and DerWesten say Dortmund has a verbal agreement with Fábio Silva through 2030, with the striker ready for a medical.
  • Sky and other outlets report outstanding club-to-club points between Dortmund and Wolverhampton, so the deal is not finalized.
  • Fee expectations vary across reports, with SPORT1 citing around €20 million and other coverage suggesting figures in the mid‑20s up to €30 million.
  • Dortmund views Silva as competition and cover for Serhou Guirassy following Sébastien Haller’s exit, not as a direct replacement.
  • Separate negotiations with Chelsea are described as advanced for a package linking an Aaron Anselmino loan to a permanent move for Carney Chukwuemeka at about €20 million plus bonuses.
