Hajnal out and Da Silva in?

While Borussia is preparing for today's late afternoon clash against Qarabag Agdam, and rumors on transfers to our dear friends from the west are not stopping, the latest signing being 34 year old ex-Leverkusen and Ghana international Hans Sarpei, who had appeared in 12 Bundesliga matches last season with only two starts, it has been rather quiet around Borussia ever since the Valdez departure to Alicantes.

BVB II player Yasin Ötzekin spend a few days in Leeds, the Championship club still have not decided whether to sign him or not. With Florian Kringe still injured there are two players that still could be leaving the club before the transfer deadline next week. Dimitar Rangelov and Tamás Hajnal, who stayed behind in Dortmund to sort out offers which according to kicker Magazin today have come in from VFB Stuttgart, our dear friends from the west (if Misimovic signs to Galatasary) and Hannover 96, who still are in the pole position but only are looking for a loan deal.

On the other side: Free agent Antonio da Silva, who has spend all of pre-season with Dortmund, is said to sign a contract with Borussia, if we qualify for the Europa League. The 32year old impressed Jürgen Klopp, under whom he had worked in Mainz, during pre-season and would come in as a backup for Nuri Sahin.
