The Yellow Tigers are preparing to sign ‘Couto’ permanently

Browse By

Borussia Dortmund are set to sign Yan Couto from Manchester City on a permanent basis for €30m. After a loan deal was triggered.

City signed Couto for around €6m in 2020 but he is set to leave without making an appearance for them. He

was loaned out to Girona first, then Braga. Before returning to Girona on loan again in 2022, where he will remain for two years. The

22-year-old provided 10 assists in 34 La Liga appearances last season as Girona finished in the top four. And qualified for the Champions League. Couto has joined Dortmund on loan

until the end of the season, with an obligation to buy, which has now been triggered.

The Brazil international racked up 10 assists to help Girona qualify for the Champions League, though it wasn’t enough to force his way into Guardiola’s plans back in Manchester.

Instead, Couto was loaned out to Borussia Dortmund in a deal that contained a conditional obligation to buy worth €30m (£25.1m / $32.8m).

According to transfer โปรโมชั่น ufabet, Dortmund have already seen enough to warrant signing Couto outright. As such, the German giant have triggered their clause and Couto will now become a Dortmund player on a permanent basis.

City have also reportedly inserted buy-back clauses and a transfer fee into their books.

He has started three games and been a substitute in three appearances for the Yellow and Blacks since moving to Germany.
