Dortmund, Atletico battle for Turkish starlet

Sport Bild is reporting that Borussia Dortmund and Atletico Madrid are keeping close tabs on Bursaspor defender Ozan Tufan.

The 20-year-old footballer has seen his stock rise a great deal this season and his impressive displays did not go unnoticed.

According to Sport Bild, both Borussia Dortmund and Atletico Madrid have been closely monitoring his performances of late.

The right-sided defender, who can also operate on the left and in holding midfield, has scored 3 goals and set up another 5 in 24 Super Lig starts this term. He has a contract until June 2018 with Bursaspor and is currently valued at €5 million.

The youngster appears to have already nailed down a regular starting berth in the Turkish national team, having started four of five Euro 2016 qualifiers.

And it now remains to be seen whether Bursaspor will be able to keep hold of their prized asset at the end of the season.
