Borussia Dortmund aren't showing any signs of slowing down on the transfer front.

The German club may have lost Mats Hummels and Ilkay Gundogan, but they are doing their usual thing of signing younger replacements with the potential to hit similar heights. After replacing Hummels with former Barcelona youngster Marc Bartra, the latest talent to arrive at the Westfalenstadion is Turkish international Emre Mor. The arrival of the winger represents a coup for the eight-time Bundesliga champions, who are thought to have fought off competition from Liverpool for his signing. https://twitter.com/BVB/status/740168368888684545 The youngest member of Turkey's Euro 2016 squad, Danish-born Mor has made just 13 league appearances for FC Nordsjaelland and only made his debut this season. After playing for Denmark at youth level, he ended up switching allegiances to Turkey in time to earn a call-up to Fatih Terim's squad. Liverpool fans are clearly disappointed to have missed out on another talented player, especially considering Jurgen Klopp's former employers are the benefactors yet again. Mor follows Bartra, Mikel Merino, Ousmane Dembélé and Sebastian Rode in signing for Dortmund during this transfer window as the club prepare to return to the Champions League. https://twitter.com/MerseysideFisch/status/740154162080518144 https://twitter.com/KeeperKarius/status/740150023036522496 https://twitter.com/LFCforlife101/status/740149531292139521
