Adam Bate of Sky Sports:
When it comes to perfecting young English talents, Dortmund knows how to do better than most clubs in the Premier League. But the story of Gittens is different from those of Jadon Sancho and Jude Bellingham who preceded him before moving on to something else.
Bellingham arrived after a season at the championship with Birmingham City. Sancho ranked alongside Phil Foden as one of the jewelry of the Manchester City Academy. Gittens, signed at the age of 16, was not entirely with the same guarantees.
Perspective to Reading, he had only spent two years in City, but was not close to the first team when Dortmund moved.

“When we signed it, it was not at the level of Sancho, but we said that we can develop it at the level of a great player. It was good cooperation between our scouting department, our professional department and our youth department.”
