‘He should stay at Dortmund’ – Bundesliga boss urges Liverpool & Southampton target to stay at club
Borussia Dortmund winger Emre Mor has been urged to stay on at the club this summer.
Former Dortmund fullback Niclas Jensen revealed that he thinks Mor should not leave.
Mor has been closely linked with a Premier League move after growing frustrated with his lack of playing time last season.
“I’ve been following Emre’s career in Denmark. I think it’s a good thing for him to stay at BVB,” he was quoted as saying by Sport.

Jensen also revealed that if Mor does not knuckle down he could end up letting his talent go to waste.
“With the talent that Emre has, he can play on a very high level if his head goes in. If not, he will have problems throughout his career,” he added.
“I’ve seen a lot of very talented players who were mentally unable to cope with the massive pressure on top international football.”
Reports in the British press claim that Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has rekindled interest in Mor.
Early reports claimed the Reds would only be able to sign Mor on loan but the latest developments from Germany suggest he could be available for a permanent move.
Fellow Premier League outfit Southampton have also been linked with the 19-year-old winger.
Focus state that Dortmund will have to sell players as their squad has swelled to 34 players.
Mor is named among the seven players Dortmund are willing to sell this summer.
The rising could struggle to break into the current Liverpool first-team as long as Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane remain fit.
Mor would provide cover for both flanks and Klopp has an impressive record developing young talent.
Liverpool could be in need of squad depth next season as they will also be competing in the Champions League.
