Borussia Dortmund plotting raid for Manchester City's Edin Dzeko?

Edin Dzeko has emerged as a transfer target for Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund, according to reports.

The 29-year-old has three years left on his current contract with Manchester City, but has struggled to force his way into Manuel Pellegrini's side this season.

That lack of first-team football has convinced Dortmund that a deal for the striker is possible, and they are lining up a summer bid, according to talkSPORT.

Dzeko, who has 41 goals in 71 appearances for Bosnia and Herzegovina, joined City from German side Wolfsburg in 2011.
