German giants Borussia Dortmund have started contract extension discussions with Ghanaian prodigy Lloyd Addo Kuffour.

Kuffour has established himself as an important member of the Yellow and Blacks U-19 team since joining them from Hannover 96 in 2016.

The 18-year-old has been linked with a move away from the Signal Iduna Park after his contract with the club expired on June 30, 2020.

However, the club is hoping to tie him down to a new deal after opening talks with his representatives last week.

The budding left-back featured 12 times for Dortmund this season with 9 of them coming in the Bundesliga under-19 league whilst the remaining 3 were in the UEFA Youth League.

He was born to Ghanaian parents in the German city of Hannover and has represented the European country up to the under-19 level, although he is still eligible to play for Ghana at the senior side.
