Moukoko unhappy with treatment at DortmundAgent slams the club for 'broken promises'Confirm intent to leave the club this summerWHAT HAPPENED?
After his spectacular goal-scoring exploits for Dortmund's Under-19 team at the age of just 14 years old, Moukoko has been in the public eye for almost five years. However, the wonderkid has failed to live up to the hype and break into the first team since his senior debut almost three years ago.

The 19-year-old has made 99 appearances for Dortmund, including just 25 starts and scored 18 goals for Die Schwarzgelben. The Germany youth international's agent, Patrick Williams has now announced the striker's willingness to leave the club while slamming Dortmund for making false promises.
WHAT WILLIAMS SAID
Speaking to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, Willaims said: "Youssoufa has a huge potential, which unfortunately he couldn‘t show last season. He was promised a lot before he signed, but it wasn't realized. He was always only interested in playing and in his development – not in anything else just like the media reports always claimed.
"I say BVB is making a mistake in giving Youssoufa away. With so little playing time, everyone will know that Youssoufa's market value will be low and Dortmund can't expect much.
"We wanted it to be different, but that's the football business. Youssoufa is totally clear in his mind, extremely focused and knows what he wants to drive his career forward."
Borussia DortmundWHAT NEXT?
Dortmund have already acquired Serhou Guirassy from Stuttgart to improve their attack, and are therefore reportedly open to selling Moukoko this summer. The remarks, nevertheless, will undoubtedly not sit well with Dortmund's upper management.
