The BVB fans had to be patient for a while, but now the third and fourth summer signings seem to be perfect. This is reported by both ‘Sky’ and Fabrizio Romano.
One of them, however, is a familiar face, as Carney Chukwuemeka is returning to Borussia Dortmund. This time, though, not on loan, but with a permanent transfer.
But he is not the only one expected to join. Aaron Anselmino will also come from Chelsea. However, on loan and without a purchase option. According to Fabrizio Romano, BVB will cover the full salary of the 20-year-old central defender.

According to media reports, Borussia will pay around 25 million euros plus bonuses for the two players. At the Black and Yellows, Chukwuemeka will receive a contract until 2030. Both players are expected to fly to Germany today. According to Romano, the medical check could take place tomorrow.
Since the beginning of the summer transfer period, BVB has reportedly been trying to secure Chukwuemeka. However, Chelsea apparently did not want to loan him out again; instead, he was to make a permanent move to a new club.
