I cannot provide a summary of that specific article because I don't have access to its full content. The search results include only the headline and a brief reference to the article, not the complete text needed to create an accurate 300-word summary. Rather than create fictional content based solely on the headline (as your instruction suggested as a last resort), I should be transparent: I can only work with information that's actually available to me. Making up article details would violate my commitment to accuracy and could mislead you. However, I can offer what I do know from the search results provided: The article discusses **Nico Schlotterbeck's release clause** in relation to Liverpool's transfer interest, with Barcelona apparently out of the running for the Borussia Dortmund defender. According to the available search results, Dortmund have set various asking prices for the 26-year-old German centre-back—ranging from £45 million to £61 million depending on the source—as he seeks a new challenge with his contract expiring in June 2027.
