Additionally, Man United and Liverpool are also considering offers for the German star, as they eye reinforcements to the middle of the park. The report adds that Newcastle United, Manchester City and Arsenal have also watched the Dortmund man over the last year.
The 25-year-old spent 10 years at the City academy before establishing himself in the Bundesliga, and his background in English football is thought to be part of his appeal to Premier League clubs.
Nmecha is seen by these clubs as a versatile, energetic central midfielder capable of contributing in both boxes, but a deal will be difficult to do in January.
Nmecha’s release clause becomes active next summer
The midfielder only signed a new contract with Dortmund earlier this year, which runs until 2030, and he remains a key part of the side under head coach Niko Kovac.
A €80m (£67.4m) release clause in the midfielder’s contract becomes active at the end of the season, but that clause is not applicable for the January window.
The website claims that interested clubs would have to pay up to €90-€100m (£75.5m-£84.2m) to get him out of Dortmund in the winter.
As things stand, the German club are not worried about losing the midfielder mid-season and expect the 26-year-old to remain at the Signal Iduna Park until next summer
