Transfer interest: Werder targets Oskar Wojcik

Werder Bremen is apparently interested in Oskar Wojcik. According to "Meczyki", the club is already in talks with Cracovia about a transfer of the 22-year-old center-back.

What happened?

Werder is said to have a basic agreement with the Polish national player. The only thing still open is the transfer fee. Coventry City and several Serie A clubs are also said to be interested, but Werder is reportedly in pole position.

Why is this important for Werder?

The signing of Oskar Wojcik could be an important step for Werder Bremen to strengthen their defense. The club currently sits 15th in the Bundesliga, with 32 points from 34 games and a record of 8 wins, 8 draws, and 18 losses.

What comes next?

The future of Merlin Polzin at Hamburger SV is expected to be decided soon. According to "kicker", the officials want to prevent the head coach from entering his final contract year. Board member Eric Huwer and sports director Claus Costa are said to be in favor of an extension, with the final decision now lying with new sports director Kathleen Krüger, who starts on July 1.

Werder Bremen has scored 37 goals and conceded 60 this season, resulting in a goal difference of -23. The club is 57 points behind league leaders Bayern München.
