According to Bild, Milot Rashica ‘should finally be sold’ by Werder Bremen this summer following talk of a move to Aston Villa or Wolves.
The 24-year-old’s future was a hot topic in the summer, as a move to Villa Park looked very likely.
The Birmingham Mail even claim that Dean Smith’s side met Rashica’s £20.5 million release clause, although talks stalled after the striker wanted to double his wages.
Elsewhere, Kicker stated that Villa’s Midlands rivals Wolves were also interested, but eventually, the forward stayed put in the Bundesliga.
If Bild are correct, and Rashica does leave this summer, there’s plenty to be sceptical about given his form this season.
After attracting admirers in the Premier League with 11 goals and eight assists last season, the Kosovo international is yet to score once this term.
In 16 appearances, Rashica has just five assists to show for his efforts.
That isn’t the best campaign he’ll ever have, but there’s still plenty to be optimistic about for Villa and Wolves.
At 24, he still has plenty of room for improvement, while he’s also a man of immense versatility.
Across 191 career appearances, Rashica has played all across the frontline.
Transfermarkt shows he’s played on the left 34 times, and 98 times out on the right flank.
At centre-forward, he’s racked up 16 appearances. Also, he’s played 34 games as a second striker, in behind the centre-forward.
There’s plenty to be excited about regarding Rashica.
Let’s just see if Villa or Wolves reignite their interest after Bild‘s claim.
