3. Borussia Dortmund

The German Bundesliga and Champions League runners-up of last season have been linked to the Aston Villa striker. Their own hit man, Robert Lewandowski has strongly been linked with a move to Bayern Munich over the past couple of months and reports suggest he will be gone before the start of 2014-15. In his five seasons at the Westfalenstadion, Jürgen Klopp has done a fantastic job with young players. Whether it's been promoting them through the youth system (Mario Götze, Sven Bender, Nuri žahin) or bringing them in from abroad at a young age (Robert Lewandowski & Shinji Kagawa), Klopp has eye for talent. Borussia Dortmund have been linked with a move to the Belgian striker, but the recent signing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Saint-‰tienne may rule out any chase for Benteke.
