Waldemar Anton has quickly become a regular for Borussia Dortmund and a central figure in their defence.

Keen to keep him beyond his current contract, Dortmund are actively considering an extension for the international, as Sky Sport has reported.

According to Sky Sport, club officials have now made Anton a concrete contract offer. Talks between the two sides are set to progress during the current international break.

Both Dortmund and Anton are said to be positive about further negotiations and hope to reach a mutually agreeable solution soon.

Since joining Dortmund in the summer of 2024, Anton has secured a regular place in BVB's defence. His playing time shows his importance to the team: the defender, whose contract runs until 2028, has played every minute of every Bundesliga and Champions League match so far this season.

According to a report by Sky Sport, Borussia Dortmund's handling of young talent is causing unrest, with some youth players frustrated by their limited opportunities to play.

In Luca Reggiani's case, his agent has already told club officials that the player wants to move to another club, the report says.

Mathis Albert and Samuele Inacio aren't questioning their futures yet, but both want more playing time and chances to prove themselves on the pitch.

Reggiani, 18, signed a professional contract until 2029 in March. So far this season, he has played only 50 minutes across two competitive matches under coach Niko Kovac and mostly plays for the under-23s.

Albert, 17, played the full 90 minutes for the senior team in the first cup round and has made one substitute appearance in the Bundesliga. Inacio, who was sent off against HSV on matchday one, has made four appearances under Kovac so far.
