The German newspaper "Bild" announces that Borussia Dortmund is seriously targeting Amsterdam Ajax's defender Edson Alvarez.

It is reported that the German club has already reached an agreement with the player himself, so negotiations with Ajax are the only thing left.

Borussia is ready to pay 35 million euros for the 25-year-old Mexican, which would become the most expensive purchase in the club's history.

Edson Alvarez played 31 matches last season, scored 3 goals, and made 3 assists.
