Summary

Julian Brandt will be departing Borussia Dortmund at the conclusion of his contract this summer. While his next club is not yet confirmed, reports indicate that Atlético Madrid is currently leading the pursuit.
According to Sport Bild, the Spanish club has initiated contact with the 30-year-old attacking midfielder and his family. However, Brandt has elected to postpone any transfer discussions until after Dortmund's final Bundesliga match on Saturday, showing respect for his current team.
Brandt himself reportedly leans towards a transfer to Spain. Factors contributing to this preference include his girlfriend living in the country, his proficiency in the Spanish language, and his attraction to Spanish culture. Should he make the move, Brandt could potentially fill the role vacated by Antoine Griezmann, who is expected to join Orlando City in MLS.
