No departure: national player stays in the Bundesliga
National player Lukas Klostermann will remain with Bundesliga club RB Leipzig. As RB sports director Rouven Schröder announced on Thursday, the 27-year-old has extended his contract with the Saxons until 2028. Klostermann’s previous working paper, which he signed in 2020, would have expired in the summer. Since the defender had hesitated for a long time before signing, there was speculation about a free transfer after the current season.
“Of course there were also considerations as to whether something new would be possible after the long time in Leipzig and accordingly, together with my wife and family, I calmly thought about the next step. And for me this step is now clearly called RB Leipzig,” said Klostermann. The defensive player moved from VfL Bochum to Saxony ten years ago.
Union brings in TSG defender and gives away professional on loan
1. FC Union Berlin has reacted to the impending departure of Leonardo Bonucci and signed central defender Kevin Vogt from league rivals TSG Hoffenheim. According to media reports, Vogt, who was under contract in Kraichgau until 2025, will cost around 1.5 million euros.
At the same time, the farewell to on-loan attacker David Fofana is official. The 21-year-old Ivorian is returning to his home club Chelsea FC, as Union announced.
Bayern’s dream professional has probably completed a medical check in Tottenham
FC Bayern was interested in Radu Drăgușin and wanted him. But the Genoa defender’s deal with Tottenham Hotspur was already almost agreed. Now, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Drăgușin has already completed the medical tests.
The papers are also said to have already been sealed. The next steps should follow soon.
Report: Central defender from the Bundesliga moves to Union
As Sky reports, Hoffenheim defender Kevin Vogt is set to move to Union Berlin. Both clubs therefore agree. The transfer is scheduled to be finalized on Thursday. The transfer fee should be less than two million euros.
Bonucci for medical check in Istanbul
Defender Leonardo Bonucci’s farewell after only six months at 1. FC Union is imminent. As the Turkish top club Fenerbahçe Istanbul announced, the Italian 2021 European champion has arrived in Istanbul to undergo medical examinations and advance the transfer process.
The defender, whose contract with Juventus Turin was not extended in the summer of 2023, is hoping for more playing time with the Süper Lig leaders in order to possibly make it into the national team squad for the European Championships in Germany from June 14th to July 14th, 2024.
Offer made: Eintracht wants Sweden jewel
Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt has apparently made an offer for Sweden professional Lucas Bergvall from Djurgardens in Stockholm. As the “Bild” newspaper and “Fotboll Direkt” reported unanimously, the sum amounts to 8.5 million euros. Frankfurt is currently ahead in the race for the 17-year-old. But FC Barcelona is also said to have kept an eye on Bergvall and has already made an offer of around 6.5 million euros, it is said.
Bergvall is considered one of the biggest U18 talents in Europe and still has a contract in Stockholm until 2025. Last season, the midfielder played 25 games and scored two goals and one assist. According to Bild, Eintracht wants to finalize the move as quickly as possible in the summer, so Bergvall could make a decision in the next few weeks.
