The news comes directly from Germany: Julian Brandt will leave Borussia Dortmund at the end of the season. This was confirmed by sporting director Lars Ricken, who made official the definitive breakdown in negotiations for the contract renewal expiring on June 30, 2026.
After 303 appearances in yellow and black, the German midfielder born in 1996 is ready to turn the page and put himself on the market as one of the most sought-after free agents in Europe.
Brandt’s departure is not just a separation, but an opportunity. And, from a technical point of view, it is also one for Inter. According to Fussballdaten, the Nerazzurri are seriously considering the move. Inter is certainly used to free agent deals.
The idea would be to add Brandt to an already technical midfield, pairing him with Hakan Calhanoglu to increase quality, creativity, and offensive solutions from the middle of the pitch. With the idea of Stankovic still very much alive.
While a free transfer is clearly an advantage, the deal remains challenging. The player’s entourage, in fact, is demanding a signing bonus of between 10 and 15 million euros and a salary of over 12 million per year, an amount he already receives (including bonuses) at Dortmund.
