In recent days, a number of strikers have been rumoured to replace Sebastien Haller at Borussia Dortmund. The names of Mauro Icardi, Jhon Cordoba and Edin Dzeko have been added to the long list of possible replacements.

One of the saddest news of the summer came from Sebastien Haller, the Borussia Dortmund player who was diagnosed with a testicular tumour. In his last appearance on social media, the former Ajax player was all smiles after taking the first step towards recovery.

Since then, the German side have been searching the transfer market for possible replacements. First Luis Suarez and then Piatek from Hertha Berlin. Now, 'TNT Sports' has added three more names to the list.

Mauro Icardi (Paris Saint-Germain), Jhon Cordoba (Krasnodar) and Edin Dzeko (Inter Milan) could join Borussia Dortmund, according to the aforementioned media. The Argentinian has been close to leaving his club for several seasons and it seems that Galtier does not count on him.

The Colombian would return to the Bundesliga after playing for Mainz 05, Koln and Hertha Berlin, his last club before leaving for Russia. In the case of Dzeko, the Bosnian is an important player for the 'Nerazzurri' and his signing would be a difficult operation for the German side.
