Weeks pass by and Filipe Luis' future remains unclear once his contract with Atleti expires in the summer. He has offers although he has not refused to renew his contract. In the meantime, Borussia Dortmund have come calling.
'Bild' says that the German club, who are fighting for the Bundesliga with Bayern Munich, have thought of the Brazilian defender as a veteran and quality reinforcement. Dortmund are looking for a replacement for Schmelzer and Filipe is one of those who they like most.
"I have a contract with Atletico Madrid until June and my priority is to renew here, but I am not closing doors," were the words of the left footer to 'Globoesporte'. This season, between injuries, he has only been able to play 24 matches. Offers have also appeared from teams like Flamengo , although Filipe's idea is to stay in elite European football. At 33, the Atletico man feels he has more to give.
'Bild' also suggest who could be Atletico's replacement for Felipe. They say it could be Aaron Martin, who apparently has a buyout clause of 40 million euros.
