Konstantinos Karetsas, a 18-year-old teenage sensation, is being transformed into a potential €100 million star at Borussia Dortmund. The young player joined the club from Genk for a reported fee of €30 million last summer, and Sports Bild claims the team has high hopes for his future development. To help Karetsas reach his full potential and fit into Niko Kovac's playing style, former Liverpool analyst Roderick van der Ham has been assigned to work closely with him, according to Sports Bild.
Kovac has reportedly instructed the teenager to make more runs behind opposing defenders, a key requirement for his success. To date, Dortmund has received transfer fees in excess of €100 million only twice: when they signed Ousmane Dembélé for €148 million and Jude Bellingham for €127 million.
