Dortmund "definitely" want to recruit a central defender in winter

Borussia Dortmund is considering adding a central defender to their squad during the winter transfer window. According to Borussia Dortmund chief journalist Jörg Weiler, the club is actively looking to improve their defense. Weiler hinted that the German champions may target a defender from the second division. While no specific names were mentioned, Hertha BSC's Linus Gechter (22) has been rumored as a potential target.
