<p>According to <a href="https://sport.sky.de/transfer/news/34132/13403055/bvb-an-argentinischem-abwehrtalent-juan-gimenez-von-rosario-central-dran" target="_blank"><em>Sky Sport</em></a>,&nbsp;Dortmund are in advanced negotiations to sign highly rated centre-back Gimenez from Argentine side Rosario Central. The expected transfer fee for Gimenez is around €5 million. The talented defender is already making waves in South America and has been a regular starter for Argentina’s U20 national team. While the Black and Yellows are interested, the club are first looking to secure reinforcements in attack before finalising any move for the defender.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The 19-year-old is considered one of the most promising young defenders in Argentina. Known for his physical presence, versatility, and composure on the ball, he fits the profile of players Dortmund usually targets - young, talented, and full of potential. A move to the Bundesliga would represent a major step in his development and align with BVB’s long-term strategy of building with youth.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Gimenez, who is under contract until the end of 2025, has made 24 senior appearances for Rosario. Known for his patient build-up play, clean passing, and strong game-reading ability, he has been praised by local media as a “machine” due to his consistency and physical strength.</p>

TELL ME MORE...

<p>The Bundesliga side are expected to revisit the deal after sorting out their attacking signings. If things progress as planned, Gimenez could be BVB’s next defensive gem, potentially joining before the end of the transfer window.</p>
