Werder Bremen sporting director Frank Baumann told Kicker talks have begun over the transfer of reported Liverpool and Wolverhampton Wanderers target Milot Rashica.
The Kosovo international winger has been heavily linked with a summer exit after posting 11 goals and five assists in all competitions this season.
Liverpool have been strongly linked in a March report by Deichstube. Wolverhampton Wanderers, meanwhile, also make up Premier League interest (Der Spiegel).
RB Leipzig, however, are also in the running for his signature (Kicker).
Speaking to reporters, Baumann says there is movement over a transfer.
“There is movement and talks with a club, but he is also on the cards with other clubs. We have to assume that he won’t play with us next season. We must not sell him under value,” Baumann explained.
Milot Rashica is ready for the next step:
Werder Bremen managed to retain their Bundesliga status after defeating Bundesliga 2 side Heidenheim on away goals in the two-legged playoff.
Rashica’s buyout clause, therefore, remains at around £33 million. However, he could leave for cheaper due to restricted finances from the global health pandemic.
Premier League champions Liverpool may see Rashica as a player with huge potential. The 24-year-old can play out wide or centrally behind a striker.
The Reds may have won the title at a canter this season, but Jurgen Klopp will seek improvement and back-up for Mo Salah and Sadio Mane is an area to strengthen.
Wolves, on other hand, have enjoyed another superb campaign as they seek to finish in the European places while also eyeing the Europa League trophy.
Rashica could be the type of signing Wolves target to help push them on.
The English duo, however, may have to move swiftly with Leipzig now actively in the market.
