Liverpool's pursuit of Borussia Dortmund's Nico Schlotterbeck as a potential successor for Virgil van Dijk is complicated by Dortmund's ambitions to retain him. Van Dijk's contract is up at the season's end and with his aging career, Liverpool is scouting for new talent. Although Liverpool might pay over €50m for Schlotterbeck, Dortmund is reportedly set on making him a cornerstone of their future. They aim to boost his salary and plans for captaincy, making a transfer scenario complex, especially if European contention is missed by Dortmund.
Liverpool's interest in Nico Schlotterbeck may be dampened as Dortmund sees him as a future captain, while Schlotterbeck himself may consider staying with the club.
With Virgil van Dijk's future uncertain, Liverpool views Schlotterbeck as a replacement, but Dortmund's potential plans to retain him complicate the situation.
