Borussia Dortmund is facing internal controversy due to negotiations to renew the contract of defender Nico Schlotterbeck, as there has been no final agreement reached between the two parties so far. This has opened the door to speculation about the player's future with the team.

German press reports indicated that the negotiations between the club's management and the player are progressing slowly, with differing views on financial aspects and the ambitions of both parties. This has created an atmosphere of instability within the team's environment over the past period.

The reports noted that this situation has begun to noticeably affect Schlotterbeck's performance on the field, as he has shown a less than expected level in recent matches, raising questions among fans and followers about the impact of the pressures related to his contractual future.

Borussia Dortmund officials hope to resolve the matter as soon as possible, either by reaching an agreement to renew the contract or making a clear decision about the player's future, in order to restore technical stability and full focus on upcoming competitions.
