Erling Haaland, Jude Bellingham, Cole Campbell?
Borussia Dortmund has grabbed another top talent. The only 16-year-old Cole Campbell is moving from the U19s of FH Hafnarfjördur in Iceland to Germany and would like to follow in the footsteps of his famous predecessors at BVB.
However, the black and yellow are not yet officially announcing the transfer of the striker, but the youngster himself!
On Monday he posed cool and casual on the black and yellow training grounds in Brackel and posted the picture on his Instagram account. That doesn’t happen every day either…
“I’m happy to announce that I’ve signed my first professional contract with Borussia Dortmund,” he wrote under the series of photos on Instagram.
In addition, he provided more photos of the actually secret negotiating table with his parents, his advisors, the signature and a photo with BVB youth boss Lars Ricken (45).
The striker is considered a top talent, made his professional debut at FH Hafnarfjördur at the age of 15 and is currently a U17 international for Iceland. There he scored two goals in five games. Several top teams, probably including FC Bayern, were interested in the Icelander.
First of all, Campbell should play for the U19s of the black and yellow in the youth Bundesliga. Coach Mike Tullberg’s team is currently the ultimate in their age group.
They have qualified for the final of the German championship (May 29 against Hertha BSC), are in the DFB Cup final (May 20 in Potsdam against VfB Stuttgart) and can also win the Westfalenpokal (no date against Schalke 04 yet). to win.
But his goal should be what many young top talents have already achieved before him: the Bundesliga squad of the runners-up.
