According to journalist Ekrem Konur, Borussia Dortmund are moving to sign Manchester United’s 21-year-old Swedish winger, Anthony Elanga.
Konur first reported on Dortmund’s interest in the winger back in January, claiming at the time that BVB wanted to sign him on loan.
It is not mentioned whether or not Dortmund will look to make their move this summer a permanent one or not.

Elanga joined Manchester United from Swedish side Malmo as a youngster.
The now 21-year-old has come all the way through Man United’s youth ranks and became a regular fixture in United’s first-team in 2021/22.
He scored two and assisted two in 21 Premier League matches that season. 2022/23, meanwhile, was not as productive for the winger. He made 26 appearances in all competitions for Man United but failed to score a single goal.
But as Elanga is still young and has a contract with the Red Devils until 2026, they may wish to agree to a loan this season in order to allow the forward to develop.
