Official | Hannover’s Nöel Aseko to return to Bayern Munich in the summer, following the activation of the €2.5m buy-back option | OneFootball

Bayern Munich have announced that midfielder Nöel Aseko will return to the club in the summer, following his spell at Hannover. 

The midfielder has spent 18 months with Hannover and has become a regular in their side this season as they chase promotion back to the Bundesliga.

In the loan agreement, die Roten had a buy option worth €1m, which they activated and in return, Bayern held a buy-back option worth €2.5m, which was subsequently activated too, meaning the 2.Bundesliga side makes €1.5 m on the player. 

With the departure of Leon Goretzka in the summer upon the expiry of his contract, Aseko will be able to prove himself in pre-season. However, he could still be sold if the club receives a suitable offer for the 20-year-old. 

Bayern’s midfield options:

Despite Aseko’s return, Bayern still have plenty of options in midfield with Aleksander Pavlovic and Tom Bischof the options for the future, with the latter said to be given a bigger chance in the summer. 

While the Bundesliga leaders have also continued to be linked with a move to Hertha Berlin midfielder Kennert Eichhorn.
