Borussia Dortmund shortlist Mexican talent Rodrigo Huescas | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund’s priorities in the upcoming transfer window remain a central-midfielder and attacker, but the Bundesliga side are also looking to strengthen their defence.

According to Bild, die Schwarzgelben have added Rodrigo Huescas to their shortlist. The Copenhagen right-back is also wanted by West Ham and Marseille, and should Ramy Bensebaini leave the club in the summer, a move for the Mexican starlet could be feasible.

Dortmund are only currently watching the defender, who is considered an attacking player, which would suit Niko Kovac’s back-three system and being able to play at wing-back.

But Bild add that with Julian Ryerson and Yan Couto already vying for one position on the right-side of defence, a move is only likely should Bensebaini depart with Ryerson then switching to the left and Huescas coming in as a back-up for Couto.

After arriving on a free transfer, Borussia Dortmund would allow Bensebaini leave for around €20m.
