Borussia Dortmund is in talks with former Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovacs. This was reported by Sky Sports journalist Patrick Berger.

According to the source, it is the 53-year-old specialist who can lead the Dortmund team, replacing the fired Nuri Sahin as head coach.

It is noted that Kovac recently refused to sign a contract with the Turkish Besiktas and is ready to work in Borussia.

It is emphasized that initially the management of “Bumblebees” plans to conclude a six-month contract with the Croatian coach.

Borussia D is currently in 10th place in the German Bundesliga standings, having collected 25 points after 18 rounds played.

We will remind, on January 29, Shakhtar Donetsk will play away from Borussia Dortmund in the final round of the general stage of the Champions League.
