Werder loses Willem Geubbels
Werder Bremen is likely to lose out in the fight for Willem Geubbels. The 24-year-old striker will join Paris FC, as announced by the Italian club US Lecce. Geubbels is expected to sign a contract until 2031 and will move for around five million euros – plus bonus payments.
Why is this important for Werder?
For the Bremer, this means they must look elsewhere on the striker market. The SVW wants to avoid leaving the forward line to chance after the previous season. The long absence of loan striker Victor Boniface has put the club in a difficult situation, as no reliable replacement was available.
Werder searches for a new striker
As a possible alternative to Geubbels, the Polish source meczyki.pl brings Tomas Bobcek into play. The 24-year-old from Lechia Danzig would fit well into the Werder concept, but the two clubs must still agree on a transfer fee. The SVW does not want to leave Cedric Itten and Kenny Quetant alone in the forward line. However, there are no financial means for a real top transfer.
Current situation
Werder Bremen currently occupies 15th place in the Bundesliga. In the last season, the club scored 37 goals and conceded 60. The title holder Bayern Munich is 57 points ahead. The last four games ended in four defeats for Werder Bremen. Keke Topp is currently injured.
