BVB talent Campbell makes decision on his future | OneFootball

VfB Stuttgart was interested in him. But Cole Campbell is staying with Borussia Dortmund. The 19-year-old winger will not be transferring this summer. This is the result of discussions with BVB officials.

In mid-July 2025, Sky reported that Campbell had agreed to a contract with the Swabians until 2030. VfB had also submitted an offer to Borussia for the American, who also holds Icelandic citizenship. The South Germans were willing to put six to seven million euros on the table for the talent. However, since Tiago Tomás (23) returned to Stuttgart from VfL Wolfsburg in August, signing the offensive player was no longer a priority.

According to the pay-TV channel, Dortmund was not sure whether they wanted to let Campbell go at all. He has "a lot of development potential," it was said. Therefore, the Black and Yellows decided to reject any further offers and keep the youngster for the time being.

Traveling with the USA U20

According to the pay-TV channel, Campbell's stay is secured at least until the winter break. Head coach Niko Kovač (53) and sporting director Sebastian Kehl (45) sought dialogue with the USA U20 national player and convinced him to seek his chance with the Black and Yellows. The offensive player still has a contract with BVB valid until 2028.

So far, he has made six brief appearances for the Westphalian professional team. In the just-started season, Campbell was part of the professional squad in all three matches. However, he did not play. He appeared eleven times for the U23 in the 3rd league last season (two goals, one assist).

Now, the American is traveling with the United States U20 team during the international break for two friendly matches against Morocco (September 5th and 7th).
