Moukoko’s contract with Borussia Dortmund ends at the end of the season. Therefore, the big teams in Europe, including Barça, are attentive in case they can get his signing at zero cost next summer.

The rest of the strikers except Füllkrug (10 goals in 15 Bundesliga games) are underperforming so far this season.
