With Julian Brandt’s contract expiring at the end of the season, the midfielder’s future at Borussia Dortmund remains uncertain.

Bild now reports that, if it were up to Brandt, he would extend his contract beyond 2026. The 29-year-old reportedly feels “completely at home” at the Bundesliga club.

However, the decision also lies with Dortmund, who are taking a wait-and-see approach.

“The contract is running out, but the future is open,” Borussia Dortmund managing director for sport Lars Ricken told Sky in August.

“We’re watching how the season unfolds. He’s working his way out of a rough patch, and I can also imagine a contract extension if his performances are right.”

So far this season, Brandt has featured in eight games for Dortmund but has only started twice.
