Borussia Dortmund youngsters Youssoufa Moukoko and Jamie Bynoe-Gittens are fed up with their lack of minutes, according to German media.

The pair of highly-rated talents have seen their game time diminish with Dortmund under pressure to get results. Up top, Edin Terzic has favoured the experience of Niclas Fullkrug over Moukoko, while Jadon Sancho and Donyell Malen have been preferred over Bynoe-Gittens.

It's been a strange last few weeks for the latter in particular. When Sancho first arrived on loan from Man Utd, it looked as though Bynoe-Gittens would be one of the big beneficiaries of his signing, but things haven't panned out like that at all.

The English winger has only played 63 minutes over the past seven games and he did not even get off the bench in Dortmund's two-legged Champions League triumph over PSV.

Moukoko has played even less football recently despite at one point looking like the next great of hope of German football. The youngsters, according to Ruhr Nachrichten, are growing increasingly frustrated with this state of affairs.

Premier League clubs to pounce?

While the report acknowledges that it's too early to say that Moukoko and Bynoe-Gittens will push for a transfer, the situation could quickly change if their prospects of game time don't improve. Moukoko is said to be upset that a January loan to FC Koln fell through.

This situation will, of course, be quite intriguing to the Premier League's elite. Arsenal and Chelsea have both been at various times linked with Bynoe-Gittens, while Moukouko has been associated with Man Utd and Liverpool as well as the Blues.

Nothing is set in stone yet as there could be significant upheaval in Dortmund with head coach Edin Terzic fighting to keep his job. The departure of the 41-year-old could completely change everything, but Premier League clubs will certainly be attentive to the situation in the next few weeks.
