The German league is already moving into a transfer market that will improve both the performance of the Bundesliga and the clubs that make up the league. After a season in which Bayer Leverkusen was crowned champion, Bayern want to prevent it from happening again. Here are some rumours and some of the latest news from this transfer market in Germany:
Despite rumours of a possible exit due to his inconsistent performances, Kim Min Jae has confirmed his commitment to Bayern Munich. The Korean defender, signed for 50 million euros from Napoli, told Fabrizio Romano: “I have never thought of leaving Bayern Munich this summer. I want to work hard, give everything for Bayern and help the club.” This puts to rest speculation about a move to Inter Milan.
Borussia Dortmund striker Niclas Füllkrug is at the centre of transfer rumours. With interest from the likes of West Ham, his stay at the German club is in doubt. In addition, other strikers at the team, such as Youssoufa Moukoko and Karim Adeyemi, are also on the radar of several European clubs. Juventus have shown interest in Adeyemi, although they have not submitted a formal offer.
RB Leipzig have rejected an offer of 50 million euros plus variables from FC Barcelona for Dani Olmo. According to Cope, the German club will not consider selling the Spanish player for less than 60 million euros. This rejection further complicates Barcelona’s efforts to strengthen its squad in this transfer market.
Manchester United have stepped up their efforts to sign Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich. According to Santi Aouna, the Moroccan right-back has received a communication from the English club guaranteeing his arrival. United’s offer is close to the €30m demanded by Bayern, and the departure of Aaron Wan-Bissaka to West Ham would facilitate this transfer.
Bayern Munich are facing difficulties in selling Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui. According to Bild, Manchester United are not willing to pay the €65m for De Ligt or the €30m for Mazraoui, offering only €30m plus €5m in variables for the Dutch defender. This leaves the departures of both players up in the air.
Bayer Leverkusen are interested in 21-year-old Hoffenheim striker Maximilian Beier. According to Florian Plettenberg, Chelsea have also shown interest in the player. With a release clause of 30 million euros, Beier is one of the sensations of the market, and he is expected to make a decision in the next two weeks.
Borussia Dortmund are on the verge of signing Yan Couto from Manchester City. According to Fabrizio Romano, the German club have reached a verbal agreement for the transfer of the right-back, who shone on loan at Girona. BVB will pay €25 million, including incentives, and Couto is expected to undergo a medical in the coming days.
Espanyol are in talks with Augsburg to sign 26-year-old French striker Irvin Cardona. Cardona, who scored 10 goals in 22 games during his loan spell at Saint-Étienne, is an interesting option to reinforce the Catalan club’s attack, as they look to strengthen their squad for next season.
Atletico Madrid are closely monitoring Leon Goretzka’s situation at Bayern Munich. According to Süddeutsche Zeitung, the 29-year-old midfielder has lost his importance in the German team. Napoli are also showing interest in Goretzka, so a competition between the two clubs is expected for his signature.
Borussia Dortmund are close to finalising the signing of Pascal Groß from Brighton. The 33-year-old German midfielder will cost around 7 million euros and will sign a contract until June 2025. Groß arrives after an outstanding season with 5 goals and 13 assists in 47 competitive matches, bringing experience and quality to BVB.
