Bynoe-Gittens Dortmund’s talent:
Following the footsteps of similar English players like Jude Bellingham and Sancho same for BVB. They both flourished after making their moves to the German Bundesliga before making big transfer moves to Spain and England. Gittens is also following in the same footsteps as an example. With many early injuries in his career at the start. The player is now slowly becoming a regular starter for the side. In this season of Bundesliga of 2024-25, he has made a total of 31 appearances for his side. By scoring 6 goals and giving 5 assists in the German Bundesliga. Against the defenders has earned him a lot of fame around the world. At just the age of 19, he has featured for the Three Lions Under 21 team at competitive tournaments. He is a star for the future times to come.
Why the Blues want Bynoe-Gittens:
Under the new ownership, the Blues are always looking for young players for their team in the market. As they look to catch up on the talented youth players in recent years. Like the examples of Enzo Fernandez, Moises Caicedo, Mudryk, Cole Palmer with the latest addition of Liam Delap. All the players are under the age of 23. The main plan is to build a team for the future that can grow and achieve together. Under the vision of coach Enzo Maresca. Gittens perfectly falls into that category of players on the basis of both age and talent. The move will also help the Blues as a fellow Englishmen setting right. With their FA homegrown player rules for both domestic and UEFA competitions.
Dortmund’s stance on Bynoe-Gittens:
As a product of the Yellows youth system, he is one of the recent hit for this season of 2025-26. The German side Dortmund is known for its ability to develop young players and sell them to the bigger teams. It is known that they are open to selling Bynoe-Gittens but only for the right price if they get it for him. It is reported that the German side is ready to sell him at around £45–50 million. But the Blues are just believed to be not so fast with the approach to secure him as they have recently secured Liam Delap.
Author’s opinion:
Gittens’s potential move for the Blues is an exciting deal for the days. But it should be a calculated move for the Blues. As the player can not be directly ready for the fast pace of the English Premier League and should be given the right amount of space to develop. At least for about 2-3 years so that he can grow properly. This potential deal is not as a move for instant impact but for a long-term impact for the Blues in the future.
