Bologna are interested in signing Marcel Sabitzer from Borussia Dortmund, according to BILD. However, the Austria midfielder has reportedly rejected the Italian club’s approach.

Dortmund are understood to be open to offers for the 32-year-old, whose contract situation is becoming increasingly important. Sabitzer is due to become a free agent next summer, reducing the Bundesliga club’s opportunity to receive a transfer fee.

The situation leaves Dortmund with limited options if they want to cash in on Sabitzer before his contract expires. Bologna’s interest has placed the midfielder’s future under focus, but no move has been confirmed.
