Real Betis Eye Borussia Dortmund Star Fabio Silva in Transfer Move

Real Betis is reportedly targeting Borussia Dortmund’s Fabio Silva for a potential winter loan. The 23-year-old Portuguese forward is currently feeling frustrated due to his minimal playing time at Dortmund.

Fabio Silva’s Current Situation

Since joining Borussia Dortmund from Wolves in the summer, Silva has primarily appeared as a substitute. His longest appearance in the Bundesliga this season has been just 29 minutes. As Dortmund exits the DFB Pokal, opportunities for him will likely diminish further.

Potential Move to Real Betis

Real Betis aims to bring Silva on board, but this hinges on their ability to manage their wage bill. To facilitate this loan deal, the club must first release some financial resources.

Financial Considerations

  • Real Betis needs to free up space on their wage bill.
  • Potential departures include Cedric Bakambu and Chimy Avila.

Borussia Dortmund’s Stance

Although Silva has expressed dissatisfaction with his limited role, Dortmund officials are not keen on parting ways with him this season. The club believes he should remain despite the current challenges in securing regular playing time.

The upcoming winter transfer window will be crucial for both Silva and Real Betis as they navigate these complexities. The focus will be on whether Betis can adjust their finances to accommodate a loan deal for the promising forward.
