  • Borussia Dortmund are closing in on the signing of Paco Alcacer from Barcelona, according to Mundo Deportivo.

    The German club are set to secure the Spaniard on an initial loan deal, with an option to buy, as they look to strengthen their forward line.

    The former Valencia and Getafe forward has played second fiddle to Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez over the course of his two campaigns to date at the Camp Nou, and is seeking a new challenge away from the club.

    The 24-year-old, who made 13 appearances for Spain between 2014 and 2016, has been told by boss Ernesto Valverde that he does not feature in his plans for the new season.
