The player that was targeted by Dortmund was Edson Alvarez, a midfielder from Ajax Amsterdam. However, the plan to recruit Edson Alvarez failed because there was no agreement on the price desired by Ajax Amsterdam. Ajax Amsterdam has set a selling price for Edson Alvarez of 40 million euros, this is a high enough price for Dortmund and Ajax cannot be negotiated either.
Thats not true , the price isnt to high for Dortmund they have that Money for Edson Alvarez.
The reason why there is no agreement between Ajax Amsterda and Dortmund is the possible extending contract for Emre Can.
If Emre Can would not extend his contract they would be getting Edson Alvarez for sure.
Dortmund are also eyeing Sheffield United's young striker, Daniel Jebbison. This 20 year old young player is also a target for Juventus, Dortmund still have to compete for Daniel Jebbison to get this talented young player.
That would be an option i guess when Youssoufa Moukoko will be leaving Dortmund maybe.
