The German midfielder has fallen out of favour under Edin Terzić and is said to be keen on a move away from the club.
Marseille and Rennes Join Race for Özcan
Marseille and Rennes have joined the race to sign Borussia Dortmund midfielder Salih Özcan, according to reports.
The Turkish international has struggled for regular playing time under Edin Terzić this season and is said to be keen on a move away from the club.
Marseille and Rennes are both interested in signing Özcan and are believed to be in contact with his representatives.
Özcan’s Dortmund Career
Özcan joined Borussia Dortmund from FC Köln in 2022 and quickly established himself as a key player under Marco Rose.
However, he has fallen out of favour under Terzić and has only made 12 appearances in all competitions this season.
Özcan’s International Career
Özcan has represented Turkey at both youth and senior level. He made his senior debut in 2021 and has since earned 11 caps.
Conclusion
Özcan is a talented midfielder who is still only 25 years old. He has the potential to be a valuable asset for any club and will be looking to prove his worth at his next destination.
It remains to be seen whether Marseille or Rennes will be able to sign Özcan, but both clubs are certainly interested in the Turkish international.
If he does make a move, it will be interesting to see how he performs in a different league and under a different manager.
