Real Madrid Contact Agent of Borussia Dortmund Defender Nico Schlotterbeck

The club’s recent activity includes signing multiple defenders, indicating a focus on defensive reinforcement. Schlotterbeck, who recently renewed his contract with Borussia Dortmund, is praised for aggressive defending and composure on the ball.
