Borussia Dortmund face a potential flash sale of star players in the summer should the German club fail to qualify for the Champions League or worse European football altogether, according to reports.
Edin Terzic's side are currently on a poor run of form and are seventh in the Bundesliga having not won in their last three league games, the last of which was a 4-2 defeat at Borussia Monchengladbach on Friday.
Dortmund risk missing out on a windfall of money should they not qualify for Europe and in the midst of a pandemic would have to raise funds by selling players such as Jadon Sancho, Gio Reyna and Raphael Guerreiro according to Bild, but the club are not entertaining the idea of selling Erling Haaland.
The report details that Dortmund could lose at least £26.6m (€30m) if they fail to qualify for the Champions League - they are currently three points off the top-four.
It is clear to Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke that the club cannot fall into mass debt, in which case a lack of incoming funds would have to be compensated by the sale of star assets.
England international Sancho, who moved to Germany from Manchester City in 2017 for a lowly £8m, is top of that list.
The club's top socrer in the last two seasons, the 20-year-old was heavily linked with a big-money move to Manchester United last summer, yet the Premier League club refused to meet Dortmund's £108m asking price.
With a market value of £88.5m (€100m), Dortmund would want a figure in that ballpark to sell and it is unclear at this point whether United would be prepared to cough up that sort of money.
Elsewhere, Dortmund could be forced into letting o 18-year-old attacking midfielder Reyna and left back Guerreiro if even Europa League football is not achieved - which would result in a £3.1m (€3.5m) loss per home game alone.
However, the report adds that club sporting director Michael Zorc is not ascertaining the concept of selling star striker Haaland - at all costs - with the 20-year-old a key part of Dortmund's long-term vision to haul in the dominant Bayern Munich.

My man, We have Telles+Shaw why need him
compare him with telles/Shaw and you will get the answer .. he is the most versatile player it's like a better version of Milner or a more flexible Kimmich.

Sancho too costly .. Guerreiro is not a typical LW he can play anywhere except CB and RB

if some star striker is there. they sell him and always want a replacement. if he fails he is bad. if he flourish then they ll sell and again strt looking for replacement.. what is going on? were they looking for strikers Or potential big business? haaland Or sancho Or reyna shouldn't be sold even before they hit their mid 20s ... why do u think abt pric money that u gonna get when u just qualify. accept debt and think abt price money for winning or reaching finals of champions League final. money wouldn't be a problem then. these guys are absolute CHAMPIONS if they reach their potential.

Borussia Dortmund should keep Haaland in the team for atleast another year. He is their main source where their goals comes from , until they can't find a replacement then they should hang on to him
