Borussia Dortmund set to sign Bochum goalkeeper Patrick Drewes | OneFootball

Ruhr Nachrichten and Sky Germany report that Borussia Dortmund are set to complete the signing of Bochum goalkeeper Patrick Drewes.

Drewes, who only joined the Ruhr side from Karlsruhe last summer, will be Dortmund’s third-choice goalkeeper behind Gregor Kobel and Alexander Meyer after the departure of Marcel Lotka.

Sky reports that Drewes will sign a contract at Dortmund until 2027, either as a straight two-year deal or a one plus one year option deal. die Schwarzgelben could also pay the recently relegated side a small transfer fee.

This season, Drewes started the year as Bochum’s number one, but a series of mistakes and a lighter being thrown at him by Union Berlin fans meant that Timo Horn was promoted to the number one position and the former 1.FC Köln keeper maintains the place for the rest of the season.

Dortmund winter signing Diant Ramaj will be sent on loan for another season. The former German youth international spent last season on loan at Copenhagen and had impressed as the Danish side won the double.
