Dortmund moves to extend Anton's contract for longer

Borussia Dortmund are working to secure the future of defender Waldemar Anton, with the club's management preparing to open talks about extending the player's contract for a longer period.

According to "Ruhr Nachrichten" and other sources, Ole Bok and the Borussia Dortmund management have included Anton on the list of players they wish to persuade to renew their contracts during the forthcoming negotiations.

Borussia Dortmund's move comes as part of the club's desire to retain the core of the team and ensure the continuity of its key elements, while working to finalize renewal matters early and avoid players entering advanced stages of their contracts without a new agreement.

Anton has joined Borussia Dortmund from Stuttgart and has become one of the important options in the team's backline since his arrival, prompting the club's management to act to secure his stay for a longer period.
