Borussia Dortmund 'win race for Liverpool-linked Donyell Malen'

Borussia Dortmund are reportedly on the verge of signing PSV Eindhoven attacker Donyell Malen.

The 22-year-old scored 27 times and contributed 10 assists in 45 appearances for PSV during the 2020-21 campaign before representing the Netherlands at Euro 2020.

Liverpool have been strongly linked with a move for the Dutchman, who spent two years with Arsenal between 2015 and 2017 before leaving in search of first-team action.

However, according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, Dortmund have won the race for the attacker, who will complete a €30m (£25.7m) move to the Bundesliga giants once he has undergone a medical.

Romano claims that Liverpool were interested in signing Malen in the current market but did not approach PSV with an official bid.

Dortmund have already received a £73m fee this summer following Jadon Sancho's move to Manchester United, while the club continue to fight to keep hold of Erling Braut Haaland.
