The young Dortmund striker Mukoko has agreed to renew his contract. After signing the new contract, his salary can reach up to 6 million euros.
The report stated that Mukoko’s contract renewal tug-of-war is finally coming to an end. He decided to renew his contract with Dortmund for three years until 2026. The new contract will be signed before this Sunday’s game against Augsburg.
In this new three-year contract, in the best case, Mukoko can get an annual salary of 6 million euros per year, and he will also get a renewal signing fee of more than 10 million euros.

On the sidelines of the game, the two had accompanied him through his player career for about 7 years.
The article stated that the fans will also be happy that Mukoko will stay in Dortmund: he contributed 6 goals and 4 assists in the league in the first half of the season, and became the darling of the fans, but in the tug-of-war of contract renewal, he was criticized.
Criticism was once more and more loud, but from now on it is only related to his goal and championship with Dortmund…
