PACO ALCACER could be offered an exit route from his nightmare spell at Barcelona with Borussia Dortmund reportedly keen to sign the forward.
The Bundesliga club are in desperate need of another No9 and the Spanish striker could be the answer they are looking for, it is understood.
Alcacer joined Barca from Valencia for £27million in 2016 but he has scored just ten league goals since the big-money transfer to the Nou Camp.
And behind regular forwards Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, he has understandably struggled for minutes at the Nou Camp.
The 24-year-old has made 51 appearances for the Catalan club but has failed to add to his 13 international caps since the transfer.
Switching La Liga for the Bundesliga could be the lifeline Alcacer needs to resurrect his career before it burns out before he even reaches his peak.
