Candidate for the striker: Will Bayern come away empty-handed? | OneFootball

Fisnik Asllani has been one of the most eye-catching attackers in the Bundesliga this season. The Hoffenheim striker’s name has also been cropping up repeatedly at FC Bayern for months. But new competition from England could now be decisive in the race for the 23-year-old.

The TSG Hoffenheim attacker has made a name for himself as an accurate centre-forward this season. He has been linked with several top clubs for some time, including FC Bayern and Borussia Dortmund. According to kicker, the 23-year-old has been considered a possible candidate for the attack in Munich in particular for some time.

However, the interest at Säbener Straße seems to have cooled somewhat recently. According to the report, one of the reasons for this is Serge Gnabry’s contract extension, which means that one position in attack has already been filled for the coming season.

While discussions in the Bundesliga have quietened down somewhat of late, Asllani is coming more into focus internationally. As the Teamtalk portal reports, several Premier League clubs are now intensively involved with the striker.

Chelsea FC, Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa are keeping a close eye on the Hoffenheim attacker’s development. Chelsea in particular are said to be very interested because the 23-year-old’s profile, with its mix of physicality, technique and intelligence, is said to fit in well with the club’s strategic direction.

According to Sky, Asllani has a release clause, which is said to be between 25 and 29 million euros depending on the receiving club.

The striker himself already commented on the speculation surrounding his future at the end of 2025. The Hoffenheim player told RTL/ntv and sport.de: „Of course you hear things like that.“ At the same time, he emphasized: „Of course I’m honored and a little bit proud when I read things like that.“
