Aston Villa star Benteke tracked by Dortmund

Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke has been linked with a sensational move to Champions League finalists Borussia Dortmund. The burly Belgian has had an excellent first season in the Premier League.

Arsenal and Tottenham are also ready to make an offer for the striker should Villa decide to sell, but Dortmund are in the driving seat to secure his coveted signature as the club are eager to find a replacement for the departing Robert Lewandowski.


The 22-year-old has scored 19 goals in 34 games, a wonderful return in his first season.


Dortmund will earn an estimated 30 million Euros extra for their Champions League final appearance, manager Jurgen Klopp is ready to spend all of that on new players at the end of the year.
