Borussia Dortmund is reportedly exploring the possibility of signing Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City as part of a deal for Erling Braut Haaland.
Pep Guardiola’s side and Real Madrid are thought to be the two leading contenders for Haaland’s signature, with the 21-year-old expected to be on the lookout for a new club this summer.
Previous reports of a £63m release clause are now understood to be false, with Dortmund now supposedly after a fee closer to €100m (£83m) to sanction a sale.
According to 90Min, Dortmund would potentially be willing to accept a player-plus-cash deal including Jesus for Haaland, with the Brazil international facing an uncertain future at the Etihad having made just 15 Premier League starts this season.
Jesus’s contract with the Premier League champions expires in the summer of 2023, although City are rumoured to be planning a double-your-money contract offer for the 24-year-old.
The report added that Timo Werner and Anthony Martial are also on Dortmund’s radar, while Red Bull Salzburg’s Karim Adeyemi is also on the verge of a move to the Westfalenstadion.
