Borussia Dortmund give Man Utd target Kagawa contract deadline

German Bundesliga champions-elect Borussia Dortmund have given Shinji Kagawa a contract deadline.

The Japan international, who has netted 13 league goals this season, was offered a new deal by Dortmund a while ago but has yet to sign as Manchester United look to swoop.

Dortmund president Reinhard Rauball says that Kagawa will be given a good deal if he stays at Signal Iduna Park but insists the club won't wait forever.

"The fact is that he has had an offer put in front of him long ago, which raises a few doubts because up until now he hasn't reacted," said Rauball.

"It is a good offer. He won't be getting peanuts at Dortmund.

"There still hasn't been contact from another club. As far as I am concerned, nothing has been decided, although I now have a slight tendency towards scepticism."
