Borussia Dortmund's managing director Carsten Cramer addressed the club's transfer approach in a recent interview, remaining calm despite the failure to secure Cologne forward Said El Mala. Cramer emphasized that the club's recruitment process remains focused on long-term planning rather than short-term reactions.
The 20-year-old El Mala, who has impressed in the Bundesliga, was linked with a move to Dortmund but ultimately stayed at Cologne. Cramer stated that Dortmund's transfer policy prioritizes sustainable squad building and that missing out on individual targets does not alter the overall strategy.
