Borussia Dortmund shifts focus to Konstantelias after El Mala deal falls through

Borussia Dortmund is advancing its transfer strategy following the termination of their pursuit for Köln’s Said El Mala. Dortmund has turned its attention to PAOK attacker Giannis Konstantelias, who is en route to undergo a medical examination. Should the transfer proceed smoothly, Konstantelias is set to sign a four-year deal valued around €30 million. The change follows Dortmund's inability to come to terms with Köln on El Mala, pushing the club to quickly identify alternatives. Konstantelias, a versatile 23-year-old player, aims to bolster Dortmund's attacking options after making an impressive start to the season.
