Wolfsburg to take all measures for Fullkrug transfer
Wolfsburg is actively pursuing the transfer of German striker Niclas Füllkrug, who is currently on loan at AC Milan. The 33-year-old's future remains uncertain, but Wolfsburg sees him as a key addition to help secure their position in the Bundesliga, where they are currently struggling near the bottom of the table. If they manage to stay in the league, negotiations for Füllkrug could accelerate, especially since his parent club, West Ham, is willing to release him for a minimal fee after his disappointing stint in the Premier League. Schalke is also considering Füllkrug as a potential replacement for Edin Džeko, who may be nearing the end of his career.
Germany national team forward Niklas Fullkrug is expected to return to the Bundesliga during the summer transfer window. The future of the 33-year-old player, who is currently playing on loan at AC Milan, remains in question. Goal.com reports on this matter.
"Volfsburg" club will use all possibilities to sign the experienced striker. According to transfer journalist Florian Plettenberg, this deal depends on the club maintaining its position in the Bundesliga.
Currently, "Volfsburg" is at the bottom of the league table and is fighting to remain in the elite. If the team secures its place, negotiations to attract Fullkrug to the squad will intensify.
West Ham, the legal owner of Fullkrug, is ready to let the forward go almost for free. The London club aims to remove the player from the wage list, as he failed to prove himself in the English Premier League.
The striker scored 15 goals for "Borussiya Dortmund" last season and contributed significantly to reaching the Champions League final. However, after moving to West Ham for 27 million euros, he lost his form due to injuries.
Additionally, the "Shalke" club, which is close to returning to the Bundesliga, is also considering the Fullkrug option. The Gelsenkirchen side views him as a suitable candidate to replace Edin Jeko, who may be retiring.
