Real Madrid have first-option clause on three Borussia Dortmund stars
According to the Spanish newspaper, yesterday’s meeting was used by the LaLiga giants to enter transfer talks for three of the best players of BVB with the last Champions League winners who managed to snatch a first-option clause to sign all of them.
What does first-option clause mean? Simply that if any other club make an official offer to sign Weigl, Aubameyang or Dembelé, then Borussia Dortmund must inform Real Madrid and allow them to match any offer they’ve received.
Real Madrid have received a two-window transfer ban and will only be able to register new signings from January 2018.
