'I'm the best!' - Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper issues defiant message to Bundesliga club and casts doubt on future

FIFA Club World Cup

Fluminense

Borussia Dortmund

<p>Riding high in confidence after a stupendous spell with Copenhagen, Ramaj made some bold claims in an interview with <a href="https://sportbild.bild.de/fussball/borussia-dortmund/borussia-dortmund-bvb-droht-riesen-zoff-setze-mich-nicht-auf-die-bank-683ec5452087972c1a97df9d" target="_blank"><em>Sport Bild</em></a>. The German goalkeeper is demanding a regular role at the club next season, claiming he's the best young goalkeeper available.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>After completing a move to Bundesliga in the 2024-25 winter transfer window from Ajax, Ramaj was loaned out immediately to Danish club Copenhagen. The German's loan spell worked wonders for both the player and club as they went on to complete the double, winning the league title and Danish Cup. Now, with his loan spell ending, he has voiced his opinion on his future making it clear that he wants regular football.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The shot stopper said: "I really enjoyed the season in Copenhagen; what we've achieved is fantastic. And one thing's clear to me: I have to keep playing, get minutes, and match practice. Therefore, one thing's clear to me: I'm not sitting on the bench in Dortmund! It's clear to me that I won't be coming to Dortmund to line up at the back, that I have no chance of playing behind Gregor Kobel. I have to play."</p><p>He added: "I said I'm the best goalkeeper of the young generation. And I think I've proven that in the past few months!"</p>

WHAT DIANT RAMAJ SAID

<p>First choice goalkeeper Kobel has reportedly been a transfer target for Chelsea, but after Dortmund's Champions League qualification under Niko Kovac, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/dortmund-chelsea-goalkeeper-gregor-kobel-uturn-stay-farewell-message/blt009e8b35778d9eb9" target="_blank">the German saw a resurgence</a> and is expected to stay. That could see Ramaj push for a summer transfer.</p>
