Last week, Bild reported that Klopp is looking to lure the Dutch international, who has recently changed his representative.
More recently, yesterday, Sport Bild revealed Dortmund are prepared to sell Malen to Man Utd in a swap deal involving Jadon Sancho.
The renowned news source claim BVB sports director Sebastian Kehl is working on the exciting exchange deal.
Sancho joined the Signal Iduna Park outfit from Manchester City and directly contributed in more than 30 goals in each of his three seasons with the club.
However, he has been a flop at Manchester United and currently out after a relationship breakdown with manager, Erik ten Hag.
Dortmund can rescure Sancho from Man Utd by offering the Dutch manager his compatriot, Donyell Malen.
The 20-time English champions are interested and even the player has changed his agent in order to secure a move to England.
Last season, the 24-year-old, who can play on either flank scored 10 goals and also provided 8 assists for BvB. This season, so far, he has started 14 games in all competitions and directly contributed in 7 goals (5 goals and 2 assists).
As per Sport Bild, the Bundesliga giants would allow Malen to leave for the same fee they paid to sign him from PSV Eindhoven i.e. around £25.7m (30 million euros).
Have your say – Should Man Utd send Sancho back to BvB in an exchange deal to sign Donyell Malen?
