As far as I've heard from the media, Hummels also no longer wanted to stay at Dortmund. There were apparently problems between Terzic and Hummels, but at 35 he probably wouldn't be able to be in the starting eleven.
Nuri Sahin is now taking over the head coach position instead of Terzic, which will also be a big challenge for him. They need to make a few good transfers this summer, because Reus and Hummels were important players who are no longer there.
Yes, based on news reported from several sources, Hummels will indeed leave Dortmund as a free agent.

He has been at Dortmund for 13 years. This is a very long time being in that squad. And Edin Terzic has also confirmed that their iconic CF will leave Dortmund as a free agent at the end of June. This is certainly quite a tough decision, however, they still honor him so much.
Hummels' departure from Dortmund is often linked to several Serie A or La Liga clubs. Some of them are AC Milan and also AS Roma.
