Selke in focus: HSV and Werder chase the top scorer!

The transfer window has put the Bundesliga into turmoil, and a name is currently dominating the reporting: Davie Selke. The former striker of Hamburger SV, who scored impressive 22 goals in the past season, ensures a powerful conversation. Both the HSV and Werder Bremen have expressed their interest in the 28-year-old, who is looking for new challenges after his contract has expired at the HSV. While HSV is trying to keep Selke and have discussions about an extension of the contract, offers from the Bundesliga and the Premier League are also awaiting him. Leeds United, Fulham and West Ham United in particular seem to take a closer look at the striker, whereby Leeds is currently even in direct exchange with him, as [comunio.de] (https://magazin.comunio.de/transfergeruechte-hs-hs-im-im- duell-elke-hat-options/)

But Selke's way could also lead him back to RB Leipzig. As rblive.de, RB Leipzig not only entirely signs, but has also already had several discussions with the released player. Selke, who played in Leipzig from 2015 to 2017 and scored 14 goals and four templates in 53 games, could be a valuable addition to the team, especially in view of Yussuf's susceptibility to injury. RB sports director Marcel Schäfer appreciates Selkes goals, his mentality and the experience he brings, as well as the possibility of putting pressure on the offensive staff.

The competition does not sleep

The competition for Davie Selke is strong. In addition to the clubs mentioned above, FC Watford is also mentioned as a potential prospect, although a change to a subclass association is considered unlikely. Nevertheless, it remains exciting in which direction things develop. In the shadow of these developments, the 1st FSV Mainz 05 withdraws its feelers after they have chosen Benedict Hollerbach. The paths for HSV and Werder Bremen in the hunt for the services of Rayan Philippe, the striker of Eintracht Braunschweig, are free. The 22-year-old Philippe sparked numerous interested parties at a price of over two million euros.

In addition, there seems to be uncertainty with regard to the exit clauses at SV Werder Bremen. Felix AGU has a valid contract, but the possibility of a change remains questionable, while TSG Hoffenheim leads different negotiations.
The focus is on Leo Östigard, while Luca Philipp is also being discussed with his expiring contract, but reaches the limits of his possibilities as a backup goalkeeper.

A look at the Bundesliga

The Bundesliga season is far from over, and there are also exciting games on the field. One example is the last game between Elversberg and 1. FC Heidenheim, which ended in a dramatic 4: 3 victory for Heidenheim. The excellent performance of Mathias Honsak and Leo Scienza underlines the competition spirit in the league and gives fans hope for smells that their favorites also have a good hand during the transfer period.

The next few weeks should be decisive for Davie Selke and the clubs that vie around him. It is still unclear whether there will be a change or whether it stays with the HSV. However, one thing is certain: the Bundesliga will remain exciting and keep the fans in suspense.
