The 23-year-old has failed to establish himself in Lucien Favre's plans and could well be allowed to leave, with Pep Guardiola an admirer
With Borussia Dortmund four points clear at the top of the Bundesliga and comfortably into the last 16 of the Champions League with a round to spare, everything seems to be going swimmingly for Lucien Favre’s in-form outfit.
Not since the heady days of Jurgen Klopp’s reign have BVB looked quite so strong, playing a thrilling brand of football in which attack is deemed the best form of defence.
Watching on from the sidelines, though, is 23-year-old Julian Weigl, a young man once tipped to have a huge future at the club, but who has found himself collateral damage to the blistering form of the first team.
