Werder Bremen hofft auf Vorsprung im Rennen um Hoffenheims Stürmer Fisnik Asllani

Werder Bremen are favored to make a strong move in the summer for Hoffenheim striker Fisnik Asllani, freshly returning from a productive loan at 2. Bundesliga side Elversberg.

Why Bremen Are Poised to Act
According to Kicker, Werder Bremen are among a clutch of Bundesliga teams (including Freiburg, Stuttgart, and Gladbach) targeting Asllani after his standout season on loan, which featured 18 goals and 8 assists

Bild, echoed by Get Football News Germany, reports Werder see Asllani as a natural fit to replace Marvin Ducksch at Weser—especially since he’s reuniting with coach Horst Steffen, who guided him at Elversberg

Asllani’s Impressive Form
The 22‑year‑old scored 18 goals and recorded 9 assists in 2. Bundesliga — confirming his status as one of the division’s top young forwards.

Combined across cups and playoffs, his tally is standout, contributing goals or assists roughly every 102 minutes

Hoffenheim’s Position & Transfer Outlook
Hoffenheim view Asllani as “their player” but are open to a permanent sale if he doesn’t fit into the squad, given his contract expires in June 2026

Negotiations are expected soon on whether he’ll return to Hoffenheim’s first team, move permanently, or join Bremen

✅ Bremen’s Advantage
Coach connection: Horst Steffen, who unlocked his potential at Elversberg, now leads Werder

Strong form: Recent goal scoring shows he’s ready for Bundesliga.

Suitability: Asllani could immediately replace departing strikers like Ducksch.

What Happens Next
Hoffenheim must decide whether to promote Asllani in 2025–26 or cash in if they feel he’s surplus to requirements.

If Asllani wants regular top-flight minutes—and Bremen can outbid rivals—he may arrive at the Weser Stadion.

Expect transfer talks to ramp up in July and August.

In summary, Werder Bremen appear well-placed to secure Asllani: they offer familiarity (Steffen), playing time, and a competitive package. Hoffenheim’s willingness to sell only adds momentum to Bremen’s pursuit.
