Waldemar Anton, born on 20 July 1996 (age 30), is a German central defender with Borussia Dortmund, where he wears the number three shirt. His current market value is around £17m, according to Transfermarkt.
Anton’s senior career was already well established at Hannover 96 by the 2016-17 season, when he made 31 league appearances and scored two goals. For a centre-half, that remains his most productive league campaign, though his main value has plainly been at the other end of the pitch rather than in the scoring columns.
At Dortmund, Anton has been part of the first-team picture in 2026-27, making four Bundesliga appearances, along with one outing in the DFL-Supercup and one in the Champions League. Across all competitions for the club this season, he has made six appearances.
He has also been involved with Germany, with appearances in the World Cup, European World Cup qualifying and the Nations League. Anton’s career is that of a settled Bundesliga defender who moved from regular domestic football into a bigger club setting and the national squad picture.
