Borussia Dortmund are eyeing Fiorentina defender Micah Richards.

The former England international is on-loan at Fiorentina from Manchester City, where his contract expires in June.

Richards has refused to discuss a new deal with City and accepts he will be moving on in the summer.

BVB are keen to bring Richards to Germany, where he could arrive as cover for the injury-plagued Lukasz Piszczek.

The fallen German giants are seeking to rebuild their defence after a disastrous campaign this term.
