Summary

Borussia Dortmund has reached an agreement to loan wing-back Yan Couto to Como. The reported deal includes a €2 million loan fee and an option to buy for over €20 million. Couto joined Dortmund in 2024 initially on loan from Manchester City and later made a permanent move in 2026, but struggled for minutes in his second season.
